Man, that camera really works.  My only thought is that once you have those out of there, you should grind a proper head on there, maybe a square. Princess has those sockets with the teeth, like an inside-out easy out.  If those rods start round, those sockets would grab.  Not as fragile as sockets with moving pins.
