Since you striped the bolts with ball ended, there still could be enough
meat to try standard tool, but as I said earlier, you MUST use 1/4 inch
size (long ext., U-J , short 6 mm allen), to be able to reach with no
angle, and tap on the extension to make sure is all the way in. Also
pointed earlier, prior to removal, a shock is a MUST for all allen key
bolts, especially now when bolt slots are damaged. If all fails, cutting
a slot is quicker and easier to do with a blade than cutting it. Use
same 1/4 bits with normal s/driver bit.
Cheers,
Ado
