well, without removing the plastic cover which is covering the whole area beneath the windshield (which i dont know how to remove without force) there isn't much space to fit a hacksaw. i barely got the rattle gun there. -

okay but how is it possible to reach the hacksaw to the inner bolt (closest to the window)? -

yeah they're probably broken. i've tried grinding them off with a rattle gun but to no use, it just loosened the bolts. -

well the nuts are stuck to the bolts and do actually spin and thats where the problem lies. The nuts are not welded to the mount and therefore i have to hold the nuts in place myself which seems impossible. Is it possible to remove the bolts by just cutting them off or do you guys have any other suggestions? -

Hey everybody. Im struggling to remove the top strut bolts to take out the suspension and replace it. It seems as I have to reach underneath the top strut manifold and hold the nut still so i can screw it out, but to me that seems impossible. Is there any other way of removing those bolts? The arrows point to the bolts Im struggling of removing. Excuse my bad english! -
