Headlight removal problem, bolt stuck

[jake9891]

I need to remove my offside headlight but the bolt at the bottom, closest to the front of the car (T30 I think) won't unscrew. The part that the bolt is screwed into has come loose and spins with the bolt everytime I try unscrewing it. I can just about get some thin pliers inside the engine bay to clamp onto that piece but it is a very smooth round metal piece and the pliers will just not grip it enough to allow me to turn the bolt. 

So how can I remove this bolt? I can't image I can without causing damage.

HI There, Can you post picture so get better idea of issue item

There shouldn't be any bolts underneath to "hold" anything.

Are you sure you're un-***** the right bits?
