it's under the floor pan, under the back seat on the driver's side. Be careful, there is fuel in it at all times, and if the car has been driven in the last month, the fuel in the filter is still under pressure.
Just grab your hand tools and have at it. This is an easy job, just don't get any gas in your eyes.

Re: How to change feul filter?
the only stupid/dumb question is the one that is not asked . soak all fittings/clamps with wd-40 or your choice of penatrent . use a couple of wrench's , do not twist the lines . you will get some gas in your armpit's , hold filter with 1 wrench loosen fuel line from filter with another wrench . when they are all loose . remove clamp , replace filter . good luck .

It's no big deal if there is pressure in the lines. Just loosen the fittings slowly and be aware that some fuel may spray out but only for a second. The main thing is just watch your eyes. This is about a 10 min. job tops.
