190E 2.6 airbox Removal 103
 

I bought a new airbox b/c the 4 10mm studs on the top are all stripped I ive tried for years to remove them question is do I wave to gain access into the box in order to remove the whole unit ?

No.

You should have a 10mm nut on the drivers side of the box resting on the side of the housing.
And two on the pass side of the housing holding down the "ears".

Have you tried to remove the nuts using a high speed air wratchet and some P/B Blaster? That usually works every time to get the nuts off of the studs.

or an easy out that sears has
