do you have enough room to drill out the center of the bolt, then use an easy out? Use lots of penetrating oil beforehand.

I encountered a similar issue trying to remove the swaybar links on my Outlander.


In one case, I used a reciprocating saw and just sliced the rounded-head bolt off. I was replacing the swaybar link anyway so I didn't care about damaging the bolt in it.


In another case, I used channellocks to grip the rounded-bolt head and they actually worked pretty well.
