fuel filter is an "in tank" filter. oh and when changing it you will need some parts of the exisitng filter to be transferred to the new filter so be careful when you remove those parts

Yup, that's it. The fuel filter is in between the fuel pump and that fuel pump cover. Have fun changing it. When I did, I had fuel all over the boot even after I depressurised the tank and ran the engine til it died on its own. Then, separating the fuel filter from the fuel pump is a task in itself because of the wiring, fuel level sender and plastic components. I snapped 1 wire off accidentally. haha.

When you replace the fuel filter, remember to coat all rubber parts with engine oil before putting it back together.
