In any event if you do it yourself be prepared to remove the muffler (that's what the shop did), that's the only way to get the drain pan off (which has the connected dipstick) to get at the filter.
If you use a flex head rachet you can remove the bolts holding the pan my only problem is getting the tube off of the pan
