    It’s not the bolts it’s the snap on clips that are the issue.

    Your supposed to be able to turn the trim ring counter clockwise 1/4 - 1/2 inch to release it. But the top clamp gets seized to the ring and won’t allow you to turn it. Too much pressure cracks the glass because it’s pressure seated against the trim ring.

    Not what you want, but I found my Juliano's polycarbonate lenses to be trouble free. I used a thin stainless steel washer under the bucket, at each mounting screw, to raise the bucket a little. Removal is no problem. The stainless steel rings are from gear head. I also have Juliano's turn signal inside the bucket. They are a pain to get cut to the right shape, after the headlights are aimed.
