just done changing my oil today for the first time. man that oil filter was on tight. luckily i manage to get the damn thing off. by using a shop towel around the filter and loosen it with a filter wrench. here is some pics...
May I give you one suggestion for next time. Your choice of Mobile 1 is very good. However I would use 10w30 next time. I have used 5w30 and 10w30. I have had them both analyzed afterwards. Believe me the 10w30 holds up alot better.
