Help - one out of 12 CV bolts ( allen) rounded grant - 8 years ago |

The CV bolts were insanely tight. I struggled to get each of them out.
One in particular would not budge - stuff was bending - i can only imagine the torque i put on it.
In the end it rounded - not sure if i failed to hold enough pressure on it or what, but its rounded.
What's the advice. Heating it is not a great idea (oil all around), but i supposed i could clean first (tough as its positioned not very high in a garage).
Other ideas? Vice-grips wont do it.
