Whatever you do, don't try this guys approach So, Dont buy a VW - Honda-Tech
i had this same issue except on the passenger side in which case i i used a dremmel to cut half the bolt where it meets the header and i was able to break it loose because the pressure was relieved. using this tool thats pictured above will not work its just going to strip and spin, Ive tried it. you basically just screwed yourself as there is no room on the drivers side to get a dremmel down their. only way is to drill it somehow.
