can you access it with a drill, or does the seat obstruct you from getting vertical angle

On a Corsa yeah?
Hammer an allen key into the rounded bolt, or if its too tight to turn, use your foot to hold the bolt still on the allen key while your mate undoes the nut from under the car.
It's square and tak welded on but can easily be broken, ive had to do this myself.
