VS ute, YZF-R6
Can you get a hacksaw blade in there? Cut a slot in it and use an impact screw give it a good smack so it cracks then wind it out with some vise grips and buy a new set of bolts.
Or try a little heat with an oxy pen if you havent stripped it out.

yeah i ended up getting a second set of rails just incase i stuffed something haha think they cost me $12 for two sets, and yeah if you can get in there you could try V8VKJoe's idea or mabe even try get some vice grips nice and tight on them. hopefully you can get them out alright and if ya do get them out dont put them back in get some new ones or if you can replace them with new ones or some decent second hand ones

thanks for the replies fellas.
i tried the hacksaw thing, i couldn't bend the rails far enough to get the blade in without doing damage.
i'm going to hit up the wreckers tomorrow, saves effort and breakage.
i'll let you guys know.

I went and bought rails man. Beyond me on how you got them for 12 bucks haha.
I called 6 wreckers and the most expensive for a pair was $150, i ended up buying them for $80.
Oh well, what can I do.
I'll let you know how install number two comes along.
