Agreed. Just finished, overall a very simple and easy process. No more difficult than any regular car, just need to take the splash guard off to access the filter which is only seven hex screws. Only downside was the drain on the filter cap was partially stripped and although I tried my best to be careful with it, it's extremely soft and stripped even further. So I had to just dump the filter, which of course is very messy indeed. I put down a bunch of plastic sheeting beforehand though so no dramas.

On the plus side, there was a part number on the cap, so next time I do this I'll just order a new one. Whole process took me a couple hours with cleanup, but being my first time, next time should be quicker.
