It will take some time, so be patient.
1. Disconnect the air intake hose to the filter box. It is at the left rear of the box as you look at it from the front of the car.
2. Disconnect the MAP sensor wiring.
3. Disconnect the coupling to the engine intake.
4. The filter box is help in place by two ball and socket type retainers located on the back corners. Grasp the box and lift up firmly to lift it free,
5. Turn the assembly upside down. There are seven torx screws covering the filter. Remove them and replace the filter.
6. Reverse the process to re-install the filter box.
This is the WRONG solution and from a different question. Here is my correct solution:
The headlight assembly is accessed from
inside the fender well. There are two pop out plastic rivets and a
small (4mm? head) body screw that secure the fender liner to the
fender. Those need to be removed. Pull the fender liner back enough
to work your arm into the fender. Locate the wiring
to the headlight and grasp the plug. Rotate it to the left until the
bulb is free of the reflector. Pull the lamp and wiring out from
behind the fender liner. Remove the bad bulb. There is a release tab
on the plug. Insert the new bulb into the plug. DO NOT touch the bulb
glass. The oil from your skin can cause the bulb to explode when it
gets hot. Hold the plug and work the bulb and wiring back to the
original position. It is a little easier to look through the
headlight lens as you work the bulb back into the reflector. Turn the
plug to the right until it is properly seated. Replace the two pop
out rivets and the body screw.
You should replace the
headlights in pairs. I didn't and the right bulb went out in a couple
more weeks when the weather was much worse. The right bulb was more
of a pain to replace than the left, probably because I am right
handed.
Hope this helps.

How to Replace a Headlight Bulb
(DIY Complexity: Easy / Time: 0.9 hour)
Parts:
1. Headlight Bulb
Tools:
1. Screwdriver
2. 1/4 in. Drive Ratchet
3. Socket Set
Steps:
Step 1 Open the hood and locate the headlight assembly.
o Tip: Most headlight assemblies have a place in the rear to gain access to the headlight bulb.

Turn your wheels in on the side that you are replacing, remove the two locking pins at the bottom side of the wheel well liner, pull the liner back and reach in to turn the bulb socket.
