Spray them liberally with penetrating oil (I'm partial to PB Blaster, personally). If that doesn't do it, cut them off... you can use a torch if it is safe to do so, or a grinder.

How do you replace a tail light bulb on a Camaro?

In the third-gen Camaros and Firebirds, you must first remove the inside-rear of the trunk. That will give you access to several large plastic 'wingnuts' (usually black). Remove the wingnuts on the side that has the blown bulb. This will leave a stud that sticks in to the trunk where each of the wingnuts were. Push gently out on the studs, the tail light lens will loosen and can be pulled off the car. You can change the bulb by pushing in and turning. I always buy the higher cost, long life bulbs. This is too much of a pain to do over and over. It's also a good chance to clean the tail light lens and the area around it.

How do you remove toilet seat with rusted bolts?

Rusting bolts normally indicates that the bolts are brittle. Taking a pair of water pump pliers and squeezing really hard will most of the time break the rusted bolt so you can remove the toilet seat. Otherwise depending on the type of toilet seat installed, you can drill a hole right through exactly where the rusted bolts slot in, so helping you remove the toilet seat.
