Hi, pics here https://imgur.com/a/kdc6v


Anyone know how to remove the adaptor? I need to switch out the bolt in the red circle of the firts image - the thread has gone.


Above the red circle you see the black circular button. It seems to be the only thing holding the adapton on - but I can't undo it.


Thanks

If circled bolt is the damaged one .

Cut it off with hacksaw and replace


Most aftermarket top boxes will attach to the base plate via a bolt visible from the inside at the rear of box and then locate in slots at the front .

Quite common for the front lugs snd slots to break and be bolted on .

Where the red circle is is the plate to box securing bolt .


Looks like yours has broken free from its location .


You will need to remove it ( hacksaw blade ) and all other bolts that pass through the bottom of the box and into the plate before the box can be removed as it may need to slide out towards the rear direction to disengage frim its location slot at the front .
