Hi Guys,
Im doing the oil and oil filter at the weekend. I saw that the fuel filters are only £5 in halfords so thought I may aswel do that whilst im at it.
Only thing is that I dont have a clue what it looks like, where its located and how you do it?
Does anyone no? Would appreciate it if someone could talk me threw it and maybe a few pics?
All help would be great.
Cheers 
Edit: Its a 1.6 Corsa sport if that makes any difference

If you open the box of the one you've bought you'll see what it bloody looks like!
You'll see it attached to 2 pipes tucked up under the car, at the rear drivers side wheel.

Na you dont have to drain the fuel.
Dont panic when fuel comes spilling out as it's just whats in the filter (about a coke cans worth)

Ok, cool.
Iv just bought one from halfords, came up to £12 for the one I needed.
Is there a certain way they have to go in or can they be put in either way?
Thanks for the help!

There should be an arrow on it. The arrow points towards the fuel tank.
You'll be fine.

It goes on a the same way as the one you take off  there is a clip on either side that you push in and the pipe pulls off be carefull though as these clips break easy
