remove front passenger seat

[snira]

Hello,
I tried to remove the front passenger seat today in order to find the source for some electric shorts on the floor (probably a leak) , it all went well untill I got the torx bolt. It didn't want to get loose and I used alot of power for trying undo it, and it's torx head went bad, so I tried to drill it in the middle but I think it's hollow bolt so it didn't help. I am trying to think about a way to get it out. DId it happen to anyone to bump into this bolt and had difficulty to loosen it?
Thanks

Chances are the seats never been out of your car before. Its crusted to the floor, as you do think you may have a leak issue.

I would grab a pair of vice grips and lock onto that bolt if possible. If not ground down two sides of the bolt head to give yourself some type of flat area to grip. Be sure to watch for sparks if you do the grind method.
