wishbones on a 1.4

WTF are you trying to undo? 

That's the slider, don't cut it.

On the back of the calliper there are two (7mm IIRC) allen key bolts, these are the bolt/slider (it's one piece) for the callipers. There is normally two end caps on, remove the end cap, undo the 7mm bolts and the calliper will come off.

The top slides out to the side then will lift straight off.

No idea what you're trying to undo as there aren't any carriers.......

I say have some fun and get a grinder out

the pic is of the top bolt, we got that one out pretty easily. the problem is the bottom one is totally rounded off the allen just spins in the hole. Its different to the gti setup, iirc that just needs 2 13mil spanners on it, this is 6mil allen

drill a hole in the center of bolt and use a outer

I'd advise smacking in a spline tool.

That's what I did when mine rounded. 

Alternative is yeah, cut it and take it out with mole grips.

One of mine rounded off when I replaced my rears a couple of weeks ago. Managed to get it off with a set of Stilsons but ended up with blisters all over my hand and fingers though.

What he said, Stilsons.

[Bellend]

Can't really get stilsons in there guys and is a hard thing for a drill.

Trouble is the bolt is sunk into a rubber sleeve so in as you mash that or try and pull it off you can't get them on it.

He cut the sleeve and gave it to an engineer guy to sort out, then bought a new sleeve for £5. sorted!
