Hit it with the PB blaster when the exhaust is cold, Sometime those little allen screws can corrode in place. Good luck. 18302326539

It may be a good idea to spray the bolts and let it sit overnight to help with breaking them loose. As you can see from the tips on ours, they're pretty rusted. These should also help you locate them.
