Default Removing the air box from Saph

Is it required to remove the inner wheel arch liner? I took the turbo heat shield off and can't seem to get the bolt out of the arch, just spinning. Is there any other way to remove the air box housing without taking the liner out? Cause I bet it's a bastard to put back in!

The arch liners can be a complete git to get out due to the clip/screw things being seized and being made of plastic doesn't help. Getting the liner back in isn't to difficult a task.
