Default heres a dumb question, how to clean the K+N in the TTDA?

Its been a long time since I've been to the boards as well as being able to work on the car. I figured its due time to clean the K+N filter in the TTDA, however, how in the world do you clean it? I thought it was able to be removed from the housing, am I wrong?

Default Easy...

To remove filter, take the box out of the car, remove the vinyl edging from the filter side and the whole endcap with filter attached can be removed. If the end cap is too snug to remove easily, simply insert a long screwdriver into the opposite end (inlet holes) and tap lightly around the circumference of the filter base. Follow the K&amp;N procedures for cleaning, Lightly oil, and re-assemble. K&amp;N cleaning kits can be sourced at most any auto parts store that sells filters<ul><li><a href="http://www.knpowersports.com/clningins.htm">Official K%N cleaning procedure here..</a></li></ul>
