All you have to do is give a good pull, or you can spend the time unscrewing the plastic grommets on the bottom of the air box. There is one outside and 2 inside the box on the bottom. Like I said, a good tug should pop it loose. That's all I did, and I did not break anything. There are rubber seal thingies (hehe) on the bottom that pull right through.

Actually, I just used an old butter knife. It slides under those tabs and pops them off really easily.

Okay, try this, I got this off the website where I bought my intake. Grab the airbox in a sort of bearhug, that way you are exerting equal pressure around it, and pull it out.
Which seal were you worried about? Did you get the K&N FIPK? It seals just like the stock TB hat. Most of the others just hook up to the TB hat with rubber sleeve and clamps, same as the end of the K&N filter attaches. They come pre-oiled, so it should be okay to install.
