NAPA should have the tool you need to remove the head bolts. I bought mine there when I removed the head on my W201.

They are torx fasteners. You should be able to purchase the proper sockets at NAPA.

Yeah I have a torx set for torx screws. I'll find a torx socket for a bolt head. Back to harbor freight. I need to replace those bolts?
