Removing Rear Brake Caliper On 96 Cutlass Supreme

Im trying to remove the rear driver side caliper on my car. The bottom bolt isn't a problem. The top bolt however has a silver cap on it that looks like it could be covering the bolt head. I was wondering if anyone knew how to remove it or if it is just a cap over the head of the bolt?

There is no need to remove the the top bolt, as it's not really possible. 
This is designed to allow you to pivot the component upward to access the brake pads.
If you are attempting to remove the caliper, you are looking for the 5/8ths bolts located further down, behind the rotor.
