i guess hammering in a next-size-up allen socket wont work? that coupled with an impact driver would probably do the trick. for those who dont know the impact driver of which i refer to looks like just a handle with whatever size drive on the end, you hit it with a hammer and it has a cam inside that twist and will typically break the bolt loose. good tool to have around...we use them often on the allen/torx screws on the older benz's rotors.
