Default Triangular T-Top Adjustment Bolts

I need to remove the triangular t-top bolts that are found on the column at the front of the rear butress. (close to the weatherstripping for the back of the side windows) How are these bolts attached? Is there a nut in the back?

Any advice no removing them is appreciated.

They simply unscrew. Find a socket that fits and turn counter clock wise....

Thanks... I guess I'll have to use a little persuasion. I am always hesitant to do this because I tend to break things. :D

I'd soak 'em for awhile first...

I was going to remove mine while painting, one of them came okay and the other was reluctant - ended up taping them.
