Default AC Compressor Replacement 2006 Lexus IS 250 AWC

Driving for a couple of years without the AC being recharged caused my AC Compressor clutch to seize up, which in turn caused the serpentine belt to tear (lesson learned). Managed to make it home without the alternator charging the battery. Got all the new replacement Denso parts (compressor, condenser, valves, etc.). Started taking things apart but having a terrible time getting to the 12 mm bolts that hold the compressor. It is super tight space wise. Is there a trick or special tool for it? If someone could share the pages from the shop manual, or any other value add advice, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
