The airbox is held together by bolts and captive nuts. The nuts are in deep recesses and sit directly in the soft plastic :blast

Every single nuts is spinning in the plastic meaning I can't get any of the bolts undone. I've tried jamming a small blade down the side of the nut but with no joy. Before I burn the fecking thing anybody got any bright ideas?

That worked for me on the 610 I was not sure it would as they were seized solid and turning in the plastic.

That did the job, well all but one nut which was enough to open up the box :)

Did you bother gluing in the nuts or similar or just hope that the freezer trick keeps working?

I just put it back together as is but put a little grease on the threads I have not had it apart since.
