I was getting nowhere trying to separate the buckets from the headlights frame. Read of lot of threads on the subject and finally came up with this Macgyver solution.
Take a piece a flat piece of steel and bend it in a U shape. Drill two holes at the top so you can insert a metal bar of some sort. Screwdrivers are ok for the holes where you have enough room but not for others so I ended up using a round file.
The role of that file is to act as a holder so you can band on the screw and get it out. Secure the U shaped holder in a vise and pass the steel bar between the screw and its holder. Use a hammer and a blunt chisel to bang the thing out. Not very delicate but it works.
