You have to make your own slot to remove them.

The factory bolts shear of the hex head at assembly, leaving the "security bolt".

Dremel cutoff wheel does the trick for me.

A sharp centre punch does it for me every time. Whack a punch hole on outer edge where you can and use it to scoot the screw around, angling the same punch to push.The jolt can also help loosen, best ti though is to do up the easy ones again to use their clamping force to your benefit

If the key turns, then just turn it to the acc position and push a your screwdriver on the little button below the barrel, then pull the whole barrel out and replace with new one. If the barrel is worn, then you'll need to remove from the column.

I also forgot to mention that if you find a 2nd hand one.. ask to keep the philiphead screws and just put all 4 in place. The standard Brumby's aren't high on the thieves most wanted list. clearly they don't know about them
