If you want to get them out easily ... and have tools that you'll use
for many other things, too ... get a set of "Impact" grade boltouts.
They're fluted and fit over the outside of the Allen bolts.  The regular
boltouts require a wrench and only have a round hole in their backs so
they don't work well in confined spaces.  The impact boltouts can be
driven with a regular ratchet or ratchet and extension.  They're found
in Sears stores with pneumatic tools.

Here is just one site where you can see them:

Of course, you can also find them at Sears' site.
