Default Wagon Roof Bar Bolts - How Do You Remove??

Tried to remove the roof bars on a MY94 WRX Wagon, and under the caps seem to be star drive bolts holding it on, I have a star drive set, but the bolts seem to have a small nipple in the middle of the bolt head preventing me getting the socket in the top of it. Is there a special tool required to remove these??

I hardly remember which tool I used when I removed mine but it was nothing special.
Mind you I tackled it from underneath when the headlining was off.

security torx bolts...... you can buy the correct tool with a hole in the center to accomadate the nipple.... or just break it off with a dot punch and use a normal tox bit.
