i just did it on my vw it was underneath my car and i simply changed it with a screwdriver and pliers.
It is just a straight swap. Although you will probably introduce air into the pipes this will self bleed at the engine as the air will rise to the highest point and eventually escape via the engine. Usually the worst you can expect is a little trouble starting or slightly erratic running for a few seconds after changing it, but this will be short lived.

I hope this helps.
It's pretty much a straight swap. if the filter is in a position where it's hanging down the you could fill the new filter up with Automatic transmission fluid to prime the filter. any other air should bleed itself out. there is a slight chance that air may get trapped near the fuel injectors . If the rough running after you've changed the filter doesn't subside after a few minutes then you can crack each injector open where it connects to the injector and wait till nothing but pure fuel comes out then tight and repeat the process for each of the injectors. But the kind of car you have you shouldn't have to do this.
let garage to do it.
