You can also drill out the studs. Grip the back to steady it and then use a center punch to make a dimple in the very center for the drill bit to start in (you don't want it wandering). Use a drill that matches the stud diameter and you should end up with a "washer" on the drill bit and a nearly undamaged hole in the hood.
