Not sure about removing the bolts but energy suspension bushings are great.

Yep, if the bolts are spinning you'll have to cut access holes. Energy Suspension has quality stuff..

Myself I would use body plugs, if for some reason down the road you have to get to them again won't have to bore new holes..

Yep, gotta cut holes. I recently did mine and I used a hole saw. I used a piece of flat thick steel to stop the washer from spinning so I could spin the bolt out. The two rear ones spun on me but the front ones came out nice and clean. Good luck.
