I feel stupid but I cant get it out

Ok so I bought a 2004 rx8 cause it was my wife's dream car. I'm more than a couple months into my love/hate relationship with this thing. So right now I'm trying to get the series one starter off and I cant get the 3rd bolt off. I got the first two which are the bottom one and the one that's midway of the mounting plate. Now I'm trying to get this third one out. The only way I can reach it is if I reach behind the tire and over the control bar into a nice tight confined area. Now my problem is whoever replaced the starter before (cause God knows this isnt the first one) stripped the head of the bolt. I'm trying to figure out a way to get this bolt out. Any ideas?
