2003 1500 front brake caliper

I had a hard time with the t55 torx bolts on my caliper I finally got one to break loose but I ruined 2 torx socket bits and started to round over the other bolt so I had to take the entire caliper off and found it was really easy to get the bolt out by grinding down the head and tapping it with a chisel. it came out so easy this way I wish I did this earlier. i'm adding a photo hope it links up

I usually give them a whack with the hammer first to help loosen them up. sometimes they are loctite on there.
