Default Flywheel bolts.

On trying to remove my flywheel today some of the bolts were seriously tight and have started to round off the heads.

Anyone got any idea how I can remove them without damaging the heads anymore than they are already ?

Got them off quite easily in the end. After deciding the bolts were knackered anyway I forced a 13mm socket onto the stuck bolts and they came out easily

Maybe not the best way to do it but it worked !
