How do you replace fuel filter on 2003 Nissan Xterra

SOURCE: fuel filter

It has been my experience with imports that their fuel filters typically are located either in the gas tank or in the fuel line from the gas tank to the pump. It will mostlikely be mounted to the frame of the vehicle and be metal.
