Spray some pb blaster or other penetrating oil over it and let it sit for at least a half hour and then go out and but the screwdriver on it and tap it with a hammer then try turning it out.

Maybe try an impact wrench? But then again, it's soft aluminum. I've also used a nickel and a pair of vice grips too.

To eleveate that problem on my 350X's I've replaced the OEM original ones with later model OEM ones off golf carts that have a 5 or 6mm hex head.
