Ditto to the air box, and they are 8mm if I remember correctly. I did this job a few months ago and for the life of me couldn't get those bolts off either. They were just old and kind of rusted so they just rounded off. Ended up having to get an extractor to remove them. After that, they came of with ease! I did have to get new bolts though, but if they are giving you trouble, just get an extractor and replace them with new bolts!

Well, with the extractor socket and a bunch of extenders for my air rachet they came off in about 30 seconds! With the air box removed and the three climate control hoses disconnected at the firewall, you can just get access to them. Now, when I put the new ones in, I used my fingers and a small rachet by hand. I didn't want to risk damaging the new ones with air tools.
