So yours has bolts in it. Mine had 'em welded in so they were more like studs. You can always cut 'em out and then use a hex head bolt in place so next time you just need to be able to get a allen in there.

Get a flat blade screwdriver and slide it down the runner, jam the head of the bolt against the runner with it and that should work....it did on mine.

and if that don't work get the grinder out... Maybe replace with stainless allen bolts so you won't have the problem next time.
