Changing Air Filter For 96 Es300

[kohler50]

Does anyone know how to replace an air filter in a 96 ES300. I found:

1) 4 clips on the air filter housing to remove

2) hook to detach

3) hose coming from the back of the filter housing to remove

4) loosened a band that was securing the housing from the air intake assembling going to the engine

But, I could not remove the housing from the rest of the air intake assemble. Does anyone know how to do this? Any explanation would be most helpful.

Thank you,

Hi Kohler50:

Is ur 96 ES a MkI ES(projector headlights,3 double spoke alloys) OR MKII(5spokealloy)??

I have an end of 94 ES300 and I have placed a K&N replacement filter in!

If ur ES = MKI, u dont need to unscrew any screw or bolt to remove the filter. All u have to do is unclip those metal clips and use a bit of force to jiggggggggle the top cover of the filter housing off. It's not the easist filter to remove.
