6 rounded out bolt heads on DS seat mount

My guess is someone used some SAE hex heads instead of metric last time someone took out my DS seat. What's the best way to get these out? Not a lot of room down inside that rail.

if you can get a triplesquare aka cheezehead socket that will almost fit into them and smack it w/ a hammer they will come right out.

The largest EZ-out in my set threads into the 6MM hex hole real tight. I've used it on both seat bolts and cam cover bolts

FYI...

Hammering a torx bit socket into the head of the bolts worked for me.
