Need to remove these little spiked clips to get the bolts out! These are in the heater box and go through the fan motor.
How is it done with-out destroying the clips? I tried levering with a micro screwdriver, I could try harder, just hoping for an easy way out.
Cheers

The metal base is totally rusted so I've bought a new heater box and need to transfer this stuff over.

Sorry I provided the wrong link for replacement retaining rings.
This is the correct one.

Heres how I did it.
It required 2 pairs of hands, long nose pliers, very small flat blade screwdriver and a hammer.
I cut the section out and mounted in a vice.
Squeeze down on the grip washer and insert screwdriver above spike then lightly tap with hammer until you can lever the spike over the ridge. While still keeping pressure on this spike so it doesn't drop back in the groove do the same to the opposite side and so on.
It was tricky and even another a third pair of hands could be handy.
