Default How do u take out airbox?

So I installed xenondepot's 8000k HID D4S lights, but only on the driver side so far.
I waited till the evening to see what the difference is during the night to get the full effect. And also thinking the passenger side would be easy to install.

But now I am sitting here with one stock 4300k HID bulb and one 8000k HID bulb in my car, and I realize the passenger side requires a bit more work to put in because of the stupid box...which I am guessing is the air box, based on another persons reply.

How do you take off the air box?

I suppose I could just do it but I don't want to mess anything up.

Heres my car so far.
8000k on drivers side
Stock on Passenger
