screws on old MAF ........

how do you take them off? I just got my new MAF today from Dave and I got the bit for the new screws and I just came back from an auto parts store by my house which didn't have the bit that I need to take off the old sensor.

Can anyone help Me?

I just replaced my MAF tonight. As I couldn't reach the lower bolt closest to the filter box, I took out the entire filter box assembly, then detached the MAF, cleaned it, replaced the filter, attached the MAF, then reinstalled the MAF+airbox assembly. Only snapped two bolts in the process. Only one that snapped really mattered. I was able to take it out and put in a replacement.
