Is the hard line on the passenger side hard all the way to the tranny? You could put the filter on either side, Which side is there more room? ← No not hard all the way on passenger side, but soft line is too short to fit in filter without risk of kinking soft connection. There is more room on the drivers side radiator connection but I think this puts the filter on the inlet path to the radiator, filter instructions suggest it go after radiator/cooler, not sure what difference it would really make though. Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I assume you are refering to the raditor connection on the drivers side, not the hard line connection running from the passanger side, in which case the direction of flow would be into the raditor. Am I correct? Thanks again for your help!

When you are sitting in the drivers seat the trans fluid circulates clockwise, So install the filter on the passenger side coming out of the radiator. Try to install it so you can get to it for easy changing. Mine took less than 1/2 hour to install on my GS, I don't think it more difficult on the RX. Let us know how it went, Take pix and post. ← Thanks for the reply. Spent some time yesterday looking at the return lines and it looks like it will be difficult to fit the filter in without making some room by cutting one of the hard lines which I really hate to attempt. Has anyone installed on of these filters in an Rx300? Any guidance? Thanks

I've just purchased the Magnefine in line transmission filter to put on my 1999 Rx300 (as described in other posts). need some guidance on which lines from trans. are in and out. One line comes from trans. directly to drivers side of raditor bottom, other line runs to trans. cooler in passenger fender well and passanger side of raditor. Instructions with filter suggest putting in return line after raditor for older cars. Can anyone give some guidance on which line is which? Thanks!
