do the bolts turn at all, or do they just spin?

if they don't turn - maybe a little penetrating fluid in to see if that would loosen it.

They just turn with the rubber nut thing on the back mate

Mine did the same the other day, try to get some long nose pliers on the rubber fixings inside but be careful, those hex bolt look like aluminium and they round off very easily.

I got some new ones from ebay.
Those look like they have been replaced before as the orig ones are black - is that an iridium screen
