They're studs (threaded rods sticking out of the flange), so they have to be unscrewed. You can do this be screwing on and tightening/locking together, two nuts. You then use a spanner on the innermost nut so the stud is turned/unscrewed. You then replace the stud with a stainless steel version using the same technique in reverse. Some stainless studs come with an Allen key socket to make refitting easier. All this stainless stuff is available on eBay. Ensure to get the appropriate thread. I think they're M10 but best measure the stud diameter and length to be sure.
