Easy way to remove air filter box

[850TurboTurtle]

I always struggle with those plastic clips that hold the lower half of the air filter box down. Both on my 850 and S80, and probably all other Volvos too. Today I put a 9mm socket on the end of an 8" extender and pressed it onto the 4 split prongs that stick up. It worked perfectly to compress them and pop them down through the hole easily. Finally, made that part of the job easier!

There's also the 'Hulk' way: pull strongly on the box. But I prefer the socket way just to be safe

Thanks for that!
