No it isn't to hard to replace. It is behind the gas tank under the car. You need a fuel line/AC disconnect tool, like 10 bucks at local auto store, use the tool to disconnet fuel line from filter and put neww one in, the line is pressurized so be careful of fuel spraying out when you disconnect it. They say to depressureize the system before you do this I just wait a day then the pressure drops over time and isn't so bad. But there is another tool you can buy to depressureize it if you want, but isn't necessary. Just be careful of your eyes when doing this, were goggles or something. Fuel filter is like 10 to 15 bucks or so.
