I searched youtube but couldn't find one. Anyone know of one? Would like to see what this box filter thing is all about. Have read it is kind of pia. A simpler screw on "can" filter would have been so much easier for everyone.

Well, should have searched google. For those that have actually done the oil change, does it look like the guy in the video did this correctly?

Doesn't look to be as bad as I have heard/read.

The torque for the drain valve stated in this video is 12.5 Newton Meters which equals 110 inch pounds torque.
"You can lead a smart-ass kid to knowledge, but you can be sure that he'll have to argue with the facts"
Except for the time it takes to actually perform the change, and the occasional oil running down the arm when unscrewing the filter cap. I didn't note torque specs for the cap, just for the drain plug. It was good they had a new, clean filter housing to show some of the steps.
From my 2010 FSM:
cap: 18 ft/lb or 216 in/lb
drain plug: 9 ft/lb or 108 in/lb
