how to change the fuel filter on renault clio 1.5dci?

I recently did one on a 2008 model. Remove driver side wheel, remove splash guard (rubber gromits and two screws at the bottom) There is a plate in front of the filter, two 13mm and two 10mm nuts to remove. drain the filter into a container then remove the pipes. The filter comes out by sliding upwards then out. Replace with new filter then connect the colour coded pipes. Pump fuel into the filter with black ball thing in engine compartment on left with drain open, when fuel starts to come out close the drain and continue pumping until ball goes hard. Start the engine, if it cuts out pump ball again and start again, should be OK.
