    Not sure what you’re talking about...

    How I do it on my ‘96 w900 was take out the 2 bolts for the mirrors and swing it out of the way. Then undo the 4 bolts around the top of the air filter can. Lift up and remove the lid. Pull out the old air filter. Drop in new one. Replace gasket with the new one that comes with the filter. Put the lid back on and put back the 4 bolts. Rebolt the mirrors and good to go. 10 minute job.

    Sounds like you have Vortox air cleaners.
    Big bolt in bottom it runs up to the top.

    The seal might be stuck, sometimes they glue themselves to the housing.Try moving it side to side.
