The 'security' bolts aren't that tight.
I have been successful with 3 different methods.

Tapping them around with a center punch.
Drilling 2 small holes and using a pin tool.
Drill a 3/16" hole and use an east out.
Slotting them with a hacksaw once they are out allows them to be reused.

The problem is that the locks are steel and pot metal so after 20 years or more they need some oil.
CLP break free or TRI flow are best.

Good luck.
