I've seen your video on changing an air filter, however, on my vehicle the air filter cover is particularly difficult to open. It is secured by 3 screws and 1 bold. I realize this should be an easy fix, but I'm having problems. Do you have instructions for my specific vehicle? 2003 Acura MDX. Thanks.

You are correct. These air boxes are not the easiest to open. You have a couple bolts but the box will most likely need to come off at an angle.

Here are a couple guides that will help with performing this:

Below you will find the process from the manual that will help provide the rest of the detail that you will need to complete this. Please run through this material and let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
