I feel your pain. I bought a set of Craftsman screw outs just to get the torix and flat head screws (why someone replaced the original bolts with flat head screws I will never understand.) out of my CJ-7's windshield hinges. The hinges rusted so bad they won't move and the flat head screws won't budge either. Strangely, I did get all but one of the torix bolt loose.
Anyway, the whole replace the windshield hinges, cowl seal and other odds and ends is another misadventure for later reporting.
Some time agon, when I replaced the torix bolts on my CJ-5. I ended up using stainless steel phillips screws from Lowe's. They really were not all that expensive. So you might want to give that a try.
Good luck!
