Hi,
Can anyone advise me how to remove the cab roofrack on my '87 Westfalia?
I'm replacing the old seal - the seal from the pop-top is off but the 4 x screws which hold on the roofrack is proving impossible to remove - the 4 x brass screws/pins at the back of the roofrack casing are also impossible to remove.
Any advice is appreciated!

To jamesc76,
They are flat head screws which won't turn when using a big flat screw driver. Have been advised to try heating the screwhead (with a hairdrier) then squirting in WD40 - no luck!
To metalmick8y,
Camera is broken, sorry no pics. The 4x screws(one on each side of r-rk) don't go through cab roof.
