T-TOP Center Console removal?

I am gutting the interior of the car for a paint job. The problem I have come to now is the T-TOP center console. I have removed the dome light cover and I can see 2 screws holding that end in.

The problem is that the screws have some kind of cap screwed onto them not like your normal nut. This cap is round and I can't loosen it with anything because there is nothing to hook onto it. Is there any special way of taking these out?

Unfortunatey I don't have a picture of what I am talking about. But maybe someone knows what I am talking about.

There are actually 4 screws but they don't need to be removed. Grab the console and slide it towards the rear of the car and it should slide out, or the front, I don't remember? There are groves that the console has that slide into those special nuts (which can be removed with a phillips head screw driver)
