Default Question about K & N

Alright I might get flamed for this one but how hard is it to put in the k & n drop in filter into the stock airbox? It looks like common sense but looks can be decieving Hopefully shouldn't take more then 5 minutes. I was originally planning to get the NISMO but after some research it seems as though the OEM intake is just as good if not better so I decided to be smart with my money.

If it takes you more than 30 seconds, you might be retarded.

Unclip, pull up, remove filter, replace filter, drop in, clip.

If you want a laugh, find out how much the dealer charges to change an air filter.

I think OEM air filters are about $7 just for reference

K&N drop-in filter install:
on the scale of 0 to 10, 10 being the most difficult task.....
it is a 0.

Mine was over-oiled out of the box, it left a nice coat all over my MAF sensor within a few miles
