Look before you leap. I have discussed the situation with CSC and they may have changed the parts to match my change.
The studs are PEM studs; they have a small feature that holds them in place and a flange that keeps them from pulling thru. They will push out easily.
When removing them, support the plate with a socket under the stud that has an ID a bit larger than the flange. When re-installing the stud, support the plate with a socket a bit larger ID than the stud and with enough depth that the stud will not bottom out. You don't have to get the flange flush, just enough to hold it in place.
