How the hell did you manage to round off torx screws? hahah hmm.. have you tried a flatblade screwdriver across the points of the star in the screw? Push it in as hard as you can while turning it, if it doesn't turn throw a shifter on the handle of the screwdriver for more torque

Drill the centre of the screws and use an easyout.
I would disconnect the battery and leave the car for five minutes for the airbag capacitors to discharge before doing it though. The airbag system in the Soarer is an electronic system and cannot deploy if there is no power.
If an easyout does not work try a hammer and centre punch, ONLY try these once the system is discharged.

i got the glass yesterday. paid these guys 120 to fit it and it looked like they had never seen a soarer in their life. anyway the window i got was green and all other windows i have are brown. ill be on a look out for the brownish windows, as now i know how to change the window
if anyone has broken side windows, ill show them how to change it without paying 120-200 bucks to get it fitted

nah the colour of the glass is completely different from factory. the green and silver ones came with greenish windows and the white ones came with brownish windows
