Default remove forward controls help

I went to go install my new linbar and got one set of forward controls off. It was torqued hard and had blue locktite, but it came off.

The second side I pulled and pulled and felt it move... except the bolts didn't instead the torx head got partially stripped.

So now what? If I keep going as is, I'll just strip the bolt head more. How can i get those out (and get replacement bolts?)

get a hand held impact screw driver. You can get bits to fit in it like tork or allen. You hit them with a hammer and it goes forward or reverse. That should jolt it enough to bring it loose for you.
