If you are under the car then the filter should be on the right side (passenger side). A bit up behind the oil pan. Its difficult to find it as Proteges have a very tiny filter. The oil pan should be on that side too. You may notice a similar pan on the driver's side. DONT drain that one. To open the nut, turn it counterclockwise.
