Check out Michael Cabrera on FB. He sells a nice one.

I think I'll go with this access panel. It's cheaper and will not affect the warranty.

Just click on the link in my post. That takes you to the webpage to purchase the panel. That's also where I got the photo from.

Installation looks easy. Here is the link to the instructions.

When you guys get it installed let us know how easy it is to access the filter. Looks like you are gonna be doing it by feel?

This looks way easier then the relocation kit and as EricB says, it does affect the warranty.

I wonder how much dust this panel lets in? And, can we add some sound deadening material to it (on the engine side.)

While you are installing it, shoot some video.

As long as you have a four seat Xpedition, you're good to go. On the two door, it won't work, mostly because the fuel tank is under the Passenger seat....bummer!

You installed the access door? If so is it easy to see and remove the filter? Or do you have to do it by feel? Thanks

Nope a good friend with a 2024 2-seat showed me that there is no flat surface on the passenger side to mount the plate and that the fuel tank is under the passenger seat. Looking at another friend's ADV5, yup it would work just fine. But he already did the oil filter move.
