From just looking and giving it a quick try with a socket wrench and an adjustable wrench I got the feeling that these bolts would be hard for me to loosen up. Clearance seems to be the biggest issue. Also any time I try to remove a bolt myself I manage to scratch the paint on nearby parts. Removing and replacing the rectifier was my first experience with this. While I managed, I imagine the dealer has the right tools or tricks to remove with ease.
Unfortunately I'm not under warranty but will have them look anyways since welding isn't in my wheelhouse.
Thanks for the tips - helps to know I'm on the right track!
