I'm trying to remove the stock airbox to install an FIPK but I can't even get one of the bolts off! I'm starting to strip the bolt and the socket is getting torn up...anyone have any suggestions? The car is 9 years old, could it be rust?

Also, the front and rear bolt are easy to find, but where's the third?

 

spray some liquid wrench on it first and use a 6 point socket instead of a 12 point

 

and please make sure its a 10mm socket

 

and the third bolt is on the side near the resonator right under the air pump hose. You gonna have to move it to the side alittle while using a long extension.

taking a break to let you guys know I just finished removing all the hoses.

I greatly appreciate the help!
