possible to remove this. use a drill with a 3mm drill bit (size is an example) to drill into the stuck bolt then hammer an old allen key the same size or 1up from your drilled hole then use that turn the bugger out. ive used this method on rounded off disc rotor bolts so i know its possible using this method. 1 out of 10 for this blunder though. although we all do this type of stuff.

what the hell u using glue for? try loctite threadlocker if things are coming loose. not glue. loctite threadlocker. comes in a pritt stick style tube thing. and you can still remove the bolts after using it.
