Default airbox removal question

looking at the airbox, and the bolts that are connecting it to the tube, how do you remove that bottom screw? It doesn't even look like you can turn the wrench once it is on the bolt.

thanks.

where the tube connect to the airbox, it has the top screw, two sides, and bottom, kind of like a diamond shape.

He is talking about the Air Box and the MAF tube.

Pull the airbox and maf tube off together, and then unscrew them. Next, install the filter, and then slap it back in. Pretty simple.
