Is there room for a hammer? Depending on the condition of the bolt head, it is possible to hammer the one size down extractor (17 in this case) onto the bolt. These extractors aren't hexagonal anyway, if they are like the ones I have. Would need new bolts after that though as the head will be mashed up.

Just a suggestion and maybe not possible with the access...

For ref, the style I'm picturing https://tinyurl.com/4j2rtaef
