Thanks everyone. I've seen a video where you can pop off the top (breather) part and pop in the new one?
is this the case or i need to unscrew the old one??
was it tough to unscrew it? Seems to be in a tight spot.
thanks

It's threaded in, 17mm hex to remove it. I used a bit of heat just in case as it was TIGHT. Factory SM says to torque to 15 ft lbs
