Buy the filter.

Remove the screw highlighted in the front and find the back ones. Lift off cover and remove the old filter, reverse procedure to install.

Hello, I'm Danny
No, The TL base model and the Type S air filters are different. I've attached the pictures below with the part numbers from AutoZone parts stores. The Fram CA8475 is for a TL base model and Fram CA9502 is for a Type S. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
