You can *just* get a set of mole grips round them. Should be enough tbh as they are pretty hard to do up overly tight

If that doesn't work, Get a dremel/hack saw and cut a slot for a big flat headed screwdriver. Just give it a few taps before you undo it, this normally loosens the threads up a bit.
