Maybe I'm missing something but if you remove the rubber part over the head doens't some of the head of the bolt still stock out? Couldn't you just grab the head with vice-grips? Since the Torx is stripped why not try an allen head socket in its place

I would think that something like this would work. http://www.sears.com/sr/jav...6000&vertical=Sears&

There are like 10 different ones, if you go to a parts store I am sure that for $30 you can get something like it that will work fine. I have a set that has pulled just about anything. I think the one in the link is more for screws, I just quicky searched.
