How to replace fuel filter on BMW 525i?

The fuel filter is located in the rear of the car. It is tucked away on the right side, next to the fuel cell. You have to get under the car to see it. 

Safely raise the rear of the car with a jack and properly secure it with a jackstand or two.Wear safety eye care glasses and hand gloves.
Now Slide under the car and locate the fuel filter.
Take the vise grips and pinch the hoses on both ends of the fuel filter. If you're using vise grip pliers, wrap the tips with take to avoid damaging the hoses. This can also be done with C clamps but the hose which is on the OUT end of the filter side will be hard to clamp.
Now with the help of flat head screwdriver, remove the hose clamps and slide them down the hose. They should still be in front of the vise grips or clamps so that when the filter is off, you can easily slide the old hose clamps off.
Pull the hoses off each end of the filter. BE CAREFUL! The fuel will pour out. Not much but some.
When the hose clamps are undone on each end, take the 10mm socket and ratchet and undo the bolt which secures the fuel filter bracket.
Take the filter out .

Take the new filter and compare it to the old filter.And install it in reverse.
