thank you so much!

Thats it.
The new filter should come with replacement plastic fittings.
The old ones just pry out.
When you take the plastic clips off, if you have not relieved the pressure, and you pull off one end, the gas will just stream out of there like a big squirt gun, so be prepared. No open flame, direct it away from you, point it at a towel to catch it if you have to.
(I believe the proper way is to shut off the pump using the switch in the trunk, drivers side. Then start your car until it runs out of gas. This will relieve the pressure).
