NOOOOOOOOOO!
10 holes in the top??!?!?!
thats the bit that is after the filter. you should drill only the bottom.
to remove it fully remove the pipe going to wards the engine as there is another screw there hidden by it

Yes, only drill the bottom. Drilling the top pretty much defeats the point of the filter.

BTW
Please do not drive any further in your car as your sucking in unfiltered air and it will eventully fuck the engine.

another one bites the dust
undo all the jubilee clips and remove the tubes and pipes. have a look at the bottom and you should see a little rubber bung type thingy which slots onto the car bracket. pull that up till it comes out. then you pull the rest of the airbox away from the plastic clip at the top.
oh, and get yourself a new airbox
