You could try a small wood chisel. It would of course ruin the edge on =
the chisel but who cares. Place the angled side down and the flat side =
up against the bolt head . Lightly tap a few times then pry a bit then =
repeat, finally keeping the pressure on the head while turning the bolt =
until you can get a good grip with vice-grips on the bolt head.. This =
has worked for me in other applications a few times.
