Question Smittybilt XRC removal (tapping screws)

Just got back into the Jeep world with the below. Im wanting to remove these fenders but looking at the original instructions they use self tapping screws for the rear. Question is how do I get them out? They have a hex head on them, do they screw out?

If self-tapping I would say yes. Either way you have to lefty loosen the head to remove.

Yes they screw out. Easier than the ones in the front where you have to hold up the nuts.
