What Audi model are we talking about?
On 5KT the best method is tho remove the right headlight, the intake
boot to turbocharger metal pipe and the air horn from the airbox. Plug
the turbocharger intake hose with a towel so you don't drop anything in
there. Then unclip the metal clips that hold the filter cover to the
airbox. With some intelligent wiggling you'll be able to remove the
cover and the filter through the headlight opening. Before putting
everything back, it's good opportunity to inspect all the vacuum hoses
that are better visible now. As far as I know this procedure is
basically applicable to Ur-quattros as well.
