Well I went out this morning and gave the bolts a spray with the carb cleaner and a gentle tap. Just went out to see if I could crack them or if they needed more coercion, and voila all 8 bolts cracked easily with minimum force. They look like they've been copper greased before which is awesome. I haven't got time to drop the fluid and take the callipers off now as I'm off out, but I go a happy man. Hopefully the rest of the strip down goes just as swimmingly. Merry Christmas, and thanks for the tips.
