fuel filter install on '04 WRX

I just wanted to be sure that the fuel filter is as simple to change out as it looks. It seems that I can just:

1) Open the fuel cap to get rid of pressure in the lines.

2) Unclamp the hoses connected to the fuel filter, unclamp the filter from the car and install the new one in its place.

3) Once this is done, is the job finished? Do I need to bleed the fuel lines or do anything further?

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks

turn the key on the acc position and let the fuel pump prime fuel thru the lines/filter and you're done!

Thanks, I think that was the easiest work I've done on my car so far! You gotta love the location on the fuel filter.
