remove your windshield wiper assembly. then you can use a grinder. on the top of the bolt.

+1 on the wiper ass. You can access the trans bolts EASILY. Then maybe pound an ASE socket on if the metric is that rounded.

I always use a 2 or 3' extension and a swivel socket on an impact to reach them.

Lift up, pull out tabs at the base, wiggle off.

There is a little tab at the base of the wiper arm that you pry out to release it . Arms are on splines so they can be a little finicky

Have you tried one of these?

You can get em at lowes IIRC. They have worked for me a time or two.

Were you using a 12 pt socket on em?

I have got to where I use only 6pt sockets if at all possible.
