pedal box swap for 142

I'm undergoing a swap from an auto tranny to 4sp + OD. I've got a donor for the pedal box. What I've found is that the pedal box is connected to the dash just below the steering wheel. The catch is that there isn't a head to the bolt that holds the pedal box to the dash. It isn't a six sided bolt. Nor a allen head bolt. Nor a slot head. Seems to be a domed-headed bolt.

Has anyone found an easy solution to uncoupling the dash and pedal box? All the other connectors came off easily.

I'm thinking of taking a dremel tool to create a slot in the head of the bolt. Then us a large slot head screw driver to back out the bolt.

Any other solutions out there?

TIA.

Jack
