Default rounded off allen head

one of the allen screws heads on my steering wheel is rounded off and i really need it out. the space is too small so i cant cut a notch with a dremal and use a flat head. i also tried hammering another allen key into it that failed. anyone have any ideas? i was going to try one of those ez out stripped screw removers from sears.

Try an easy out, chisel the head off, possibly hammer in a torx, ect., ect.... There are quite a few ways to get stuff off/ out.

Easy out FOR THE WIN honestly I've used my set so many times on so many different things. Use a metal drill bit to drill the start hole its easier with that...
