How does one get the cover off the air filter off to replace the air filter, I can't find any clips that hold it together. Thanks

Removal Procedure

1. Remove the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor connector.
2. Loosen the clean air duct clamp at the Mass Air Flow Sensor end of the duct.
3. Disconnect the clean air duct from the Mass Air Flow Sensor.
4. Disengage both air cleaner cover latches. One latch is located at the rear corner of the inboard edge of the cover. The other is located at the outboard corner of the rear edge of the cover.
5. Pivot the air cleaner and clean air duct assembly toward the front of the vehicle.
6. Remove the assembly.
7. Inspect air filter element.
8. Remove any loose debris that may be found laying in the base of the air cleaner.
There you go.
