Default Replacing Air Con Condenser

I have a 1999 Jaguar XJ8 3.2. The air con condenser needs replacing. I have removed the front bumper and Grill, but the 2 bolts that hold the air con condenser in place, just seem to turn, but won't come out. Is there a nut somewhere that needs a spanner on it?
Thanks

Still struggling. I am trying to avoid taking both Rad's out to avoid disconnecting more than I need to.

Just did the same today. If the screws are just turninh you'll have to remove both.

I think you can place something between rad and nut and you should be able to solve it that way.
