Default Exhaust bolts

Bit of advice on these exhaust bolts please; snap off with grips, or cut vertically or horizontally? I don't think they are coming off any other way. Cheers

I'd hit them with a big impact gun, if they come off, great. If they break, great. Win-Win

Thanks guys. I cut them off; there was nothing to get a socket on to!
Then there was the exhaust hangers to fight with; having no specialist tool, I found ordinary grips to be best.
