Great idea. I got them out. Three were stripped inside the Allen socket and would not break lose even with vice grips. Ran up to the local auto store and bought these:





Absolutely worked like magic. Tapped them on with a hammer and even at an angle it backed all 3 out on the first try. The kit was a bit pricey $50 but they are well made and will make my life easier in the future. For this application you only need the 10mm socket.
