Alternatively, pull the spider off so that you can access the other side of the fifth bolt and use generic chainring bolts/nuts, then reattach the spider after you've finished tightening the rings to the spider
Thanks! This might be the answer as I think i've reached my limit of attempting to bash it out
The hidden/non-hidden 5th bolt is a variation between bolt kits rather than chainrings.
Wickwerks do a compatible bolt kit, although you'll have plenty of time to work on pressing the old one out while you wait for shipping from the US🙂
