Take Exhaust Muffler Resonator out

I'm trying to remove the Exhaust Muffler Resonator but it seems there is a Star torx nut i don't know what size its 13mm or 12mm.
Does anyone know what size its or is there another way around it?
There are 2 on each side.

I believe you just pull the rubber off the metal bracket.

So this rubber can be stretched.
Good to know, Thank you.

That looks like the same type of system that was on Linda's 1971 MB 350SL. It's like a very thick o-ring. As I recall that was how her muffler was held up? The SC that I bought her was my way of trying to get back on her good side after selling her MB 350SL back in 1994. She does not forget much!
