as others recommended, i was able to remove those 3 allen bolts holding fan clutch and got the fan out, leaving fan clutch attached to engine still though.
attached is a pic i took for stripped bolt. as you can see, there is no clearance to use other tool to remove it and i'm kinda scared to use the dremel tool as well... also i removed the radiator so i have some more clearance but can't use a hammer as it damages the ac condenser....
should i try the 8.5mm allen key? or should i leave it the way it is?
