Me n blue almost had this problem with my seats, luckly we managed to use some VD 40,
The bolt should have an outside head and an inside allan key slot, Assuming you have rounded both of these, your gonna need to drill through the bolt mate.

not sure mate, When me and blue did it the two arms went in at an angle, tint the seat back 45 degrees towards to back seats and slide em in, if its stuff use some WD40 or grease.
