UNLESS precautions and steps are taken prior to get them out. I take them out quite often even with the wiper door assembly in the car and I ahve had good success in not breaking the bolts off.
Keep in mind many of the Corvettes I work on are Southern Corvettes....and I have the sense of 'feel' to KNOW when to stop trying to take the bolt out.

I guess I wrote that previous post a bit incorrect. I work on a lot of Corvettes that have lived their life in the south.
Being somewhat lucky to work on Corvettes that are not eaten up by salt and rust....I guess that I have been spoiled over the years. Every once and a while I get one in that is a 'transplant' and came with someone who moved from the north....and working on it...I realize that it is faster to break the bolts off and replace them due to the rust.
Sorry for any confusion.
