How do u replace reeds on 09 m8

[summ8rmk]

Just like the title says.
I tried pulling out the air box and throttle bodies and couldn't.
Is there a secret?
Do I have to disassemble the entire front end?

Just take the screw out of the retaining tab in the nose. Pull the air box out then the rubber boot then the throttle bodies.

The rubber boot was my problem. I figured out that u fold the boot in to itself and pull it out the front.

Just get some good channel locks and grab BEHIND the sealing lip and give it a sharp pull. It will come right through the frame. DO NOT grab on the sealing ring or it will tear and then you will need a new boot.
