We used 2 long extensions and a universal joint...I believe that the bolds are 17mm. We use a 3/8" drive socket..it fits well on the bolt. There's not a lot of clearance around the bolt to get the socket on. We used a breaker bar.

They are best done from the driver's side. I think that there are 10 bolts.

Wrap a turn or so of masking tape around the universal joint...to keep it from flopping around.

Have another person at the top with a flashlight to make sure you are on the bolt...then turn....once they are loose, they are fairly easy.

If your car is on on jack-stands, there won't be a lot of room...

Have fun!
