How about soaking with penetrating oil for a couple of days then use an impact driver with any bit that will sort of hang on ?

You might have to drill the heads off as a last resort.

What I'll do is soak with penatrating oil then first tighten just a little then loosen. Sometimes I've had to do that a few times to get loose.
