Default Removing security screws

Hi guys

I tried to change the plates on my car, but they have been put on with security screws (they only screw in, not out)

Ani idea on how to get them out?

Thanks in advance.

Lawrence

Maybe take a picture so when can see what the screw looks like, it might only be a torx bit screw which you can buy the bit from any tool or hardware store.
