Lower awning bracket removal

Has anyone ever removed the lower awning brackets on a classic 19? I removed the nuts from the interior plywood backing but the bolts and bracket will not budge. I also can’t seem to get a thin putty knife behind the bracket to pry it loose and gentle hammer taps do nothing to loosen the bolts. It looks like butyl putty behind the brackets but maybe it’s something else.

I just want to clean up the trailer of the unnecessary hardware after removing the awning that we never used. My plan was to fill the holes with stainless steel bolts, neoprene washers, and Proflex sealant.

Thanks!
