Missing,
Yes, there are six bolts per cv. Again, you would need to get a 8mm 12-point tool to remove them. Make sure you clean the head of the bolt first, since grease and dirt will be filled inside the bolt heads and you could strip out a bolt (or more).
Tap each bolt before attempting to remove them, also when installing the bolts, make sure they are torqued to 31lbs and use a cross-pattern when tightening.
Use this link for for info/help, it is pretty straight forward overall.
Good luck!
