When removing the rear caliper hanger bolts be prepared to have issues with them rounding off, being super seized or the heads even shearing off. They're notorious for this but this can be solved relatively easy by using Irwin bolt removers and the simply replacing the crappy ones with fresh OEM VW ones for a few quid.

Correct.
Irwin extractors are an invaluable tool when comes to do this sort of job.
