of what,
ill guess and say your doors. if so, what i did was i got a dremel and cut two sides off and tried to use a wrench. that didnt work so i just used my 4" grinder and cut the head off. i then tried to use the existing piece, which i thought would work, but didnt. so i tapped it and died it.

why are you taking those bolts off, why not just remove the hex heads on the frame rails?

you could try to use an allen wrench. the allens head and a hex head driver "bite" in different areas. as long as it isnt completly rounded out.
find a allen that is quite a snugg fit. you might even have to smack it with a hammer to get it to go in. then turn it out.
i would also hit it with some PB Blaster to loosen some of the rust.
if that doesnt work, you could try to cut a slit in the head and use a large flathead driver. or just cut the hole thing off and replace with a new conventional bolt and speed nut.
