It depends on how much room.....

it's raining here, so I won't go out and look at my car, but if there is enough room, a small pipe (stillson) wrench should do the trick.....I have a 6" one for removing the odd stud and rounded off bolts and such.....

also, as was mentioned those Craftsman Bolt Extractors, I think I have seen them sold in Lowe's (Irwin Tools)....work well......

always use lotsa penetrant.....and some heat, if possible to do.... and not create a hazard or local news item.....

heat, penetrant, cool, tap tap....repeat several times....try again......patience, some beer or whatever may be in order to prevent frustration....
