I would guess that there is wiring in the arch for lights, speakers, radar etc. Then the screws may be frozen due to corrosion. The removal looks like a big job and I would consider refinishing it in place. Sand it, fill the holes, prime coat it and paint it while using a step ladder and drop cloths. Just my opinion. I have never removed one. Capt. George
