Idk on those perticular bolts, but at the salvage yard if that happend we heat the bolt up a little bit and hammer in the nextd size. May not work for you but it does us.

Get one of those drivers like I used. You put the bit in it and hit the other end with a hammer and as you hit it, it turns

ouch i got a headache,just broke the extractor in the stripped bolt
Oh no...
Try to lock a vice-grip as tight as possible on the head of the bolt and smack it with a hammer.
It doesn't have a head. They're recessed in the plate. That's I said get one of those drivers...

Sharpen a small chisel and tap the bolt head on the edge, with a hammer, counter clockwise, of course.
Maybe you'll get enough bite on the edge to get the bolt loose, that's how we've done it.
I've loosened many bolts this way.
good luck,
