Rear roof section removal

[jimmyV8]

Just been trying to remove the rear roof section on my Chimaera as need to get the window restitched. I have undone the 3 hexbolts but the 2 philips type screws are rediculously tight and cant get them to budge, also appear to have been rounded off by a previous owner slightly. Any suggestions on where to go ffrom here, drill them out? Cant really see what is behind them but looks to be a possible answer? My other question is does it just pull off afterwards or does it hook under a rail or anything at the base? Cheers

Yep, you will have to drill them, or break the cap base thats behind them and get a pair of pliers on them.
