- Mine were hex head and they would not budge and started to thread. Used a nice sharp flat head screwdriver, angled it behind the screw head and tapped it with a hammer until it came away from the back plate a little. This loosened it just enough to remove with a tight fitting flat head.
- Mine were COMPLETELY corroded and I tried EVERYTHING....... in the end i bought a 'grabit' (I think it's called grabit just google it) and once I'd sussed how to use it (stage 1 needs more omph than i realised) got them out easily
- I used hex head bit in an impact driver to loosen screw aided by a squirt of WD40.
- The heads are posidrive or Philips. Try some WD40 or similar to loosen the threads
