Mmm, not quite sure what you've done, so,..... once you've removed the allen key bolt, there's a shaft in the hole with a threaded hole in the middle, find a suitable bolt, wind the bolt in, and usually the shaft comes out without too much grief...... hopefully you'll have got it out by now anyway!

WD40!
Remove the rubber boot over the clutch release arm and spray a LITTLE in there too. Have a cup of tea to allow it to soak and force the bugger out pulling/levering on the m6 bolt (screw it well into the shaft!)

Put a decent washer onto the bolt & it'll give you something to lever against.

still no luck can you buy a tool to get it out? or am I just going to have to keep trying? also what size nails do you need to knock the pins out of the driveshafts.

If they are stubborn, I use a decent size washer and a door panel trim removal tool. It looks like a screwdriver but the end has a V shape to it. Its also bent on the end to help you get leverage. Just keep at it, you'll get it out.
