Would help to know your local.

To get the old ones of you will need the right wrench/socket combination and
possibly combinations.

First clean with a tooth pick or similar all of the holes in the heads of
the six bolts holding each of the joints (24 total).  They are probably full
of grime.

Then determine if you need the hex or trisquare or both to remove the bolts.
6mm hex and/or the 12 point
