I am very frustrated now, as I cannot see how I will be able to reach the bolts with either the proper allen head socket, or one of the L-shaped keys.
If memory serves the cap head screws require an M5 allen key.

What you need is a quarter inch drive socket set - preferably with one of those woven wire flexi-drive extensions (so you can reach in amongst all those obstructions) plus a range of allen key sockets. Not expensive and it'll prove very useful around the car.
