I cannot stress enough how important it is to use the correct torx (T40) and not taking the bolts out until both are loose - else the bracket will rotate.

If you are not using T25s, you will strip the heads - do not fight the bolts. If they are not moving - heat them up to break the threadlock. If you try to force these out you will either strip the bolt or break the head off - plenty of people have done exactly that.

Don't be this guy.
