First,
it is a special bit.... a t-40plus, the t-40 will likely break or ruin the bolt.

If that doesn't work you will have to carefully drill out the bolts. The heads tend to gall themselves in place.

Been in this position as well. After I drilled out the bolt heads, the threaded parts unscrewed by hand.
