[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 268022, member: 7791"] Yeah scrape the paint off the bolt heads (if there is any left) and spray them. Every couple hours or so spray again.... I also tap them lightly to try and loosen the crap between the threads. Even doing all of this you may still break them off, it is very common. When you go to put them back in you will want to coat them with anti seeze. Best case scenario if they break off, only the head of the bolt comes off. Then when you remove the cover there will be a piece that you can grab with vise grips..... a torch set will probably be required also to heat it before trying to remove it. But this is all hypothetical and I hope they come out easy enough for ya :) [/QUOTE]
