Engine cradle front bolts

...after looking though dozens of search results, I still cannot find an answer to this one:
I'm working on a basic 2006 GP. How in the world do I get the front engine cradle bolts out of this thing?

I need to drop the engine/trans down enough to remove the side cover and change the various solenoids within. I have (almost) everything disconnected and I'm nearly at the point where I'm ready to drop the cradle. The rear cradle bolts are immediately visible. The front ones don't look like the rear ones though. They appear to come from the top and point down. There's either something else I need to do/remove, or I'm looking at the wrong thing.

Whatever the answer, I'm sure I'll feel pretty foolish for missing it.
This is what I'm looking at:
