Angry Airbox clip rage

I've done a quick search to find the solution but to no avail. I recently replaced my mass airflow sensor after the check engine light came on. The light still keeps coming on with the same P0101 code. I have a hunch that it may have something to do with one of the airbox clips that neither I nor any friends can seem to latch. It is the one right in front of the firewall and is a real pain to get to. There is maybe 1.5 inches of clearance, though I think it's closer to 1 inch. To anyone who has had this problem, how do I latch it? I'll try to get a picture later on. I tried taking out the one airbox mounting stud visible on the fender but there is another one at the bottom I cannot reach. Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you.

Do you mean the airbox itself - like where the filter is?

I just bought this car a couple weeks ago and am getting familiar with it. I too was having issues after checking the air filter. I found the easiest way to get those two clips closest to the manifold latched was to take off the plastic face plate that says "5V". That gives some more room to get down there. Also, latch that side first, then latch the fender side.
