Negative.

On the MK4, open the bonnet, on the passenger's side at the base of the windscreen on the plastic trim, you'll see 3 screws to a panel that is removable. Behind there is the pollen filter.

Is for LHD but ours just mirror this. (Still a good way to scratch up your hands getting the old filter out and the new one back in!)
