Guys, need help installing my intake

Ok, so Im at the point where I have to remove the MAS from the air filter box via those four stupid bolts that im supposed to break free from the plastic on the other side. Well, I got the first two off, but the other two, I ratcheted free, but the "rectangular bolt" in the back is just spinning free, and now I cant simply hammer it out. If you dont know what step im on I'll paste the directions from evomoto.com, it's step #9...

Evomoto.com, step #9

yes, or channel locks...you should have took an open end wrench in the first place, and hammered with quick taps, worked for me with no problem and no slipping bolt.

Yah, I tried the pliars trick, didnt quite hold it all that well, it's a slippery lil bugger. I'll keep wrenching on it, if all else fails I'll rip the suckah out! In any case thanks for the replies.

rest the pliers against the wall of the box so they cant move then try if you use vice-grip this should be very easy since it will be locked on the head. or try an openended wrench. i have used both and they worked for me.
