The bolts are still in and heads still on, torx just not catching. Suggestions on how to get out?

I ended up just putting new fluid in and going home. I was 2 hours from home and didn’t have the parts or know how to handle.

Instructions should mention checking to see if those bolt can spin before draining fluid.
Thanks.
