    large metal drill bit, drill hole over the top of the fixing secrew so you can unscrew it through the hole you just drilled. no damage to tiles.;)

    You risk damaging the heads, which is why I would prefer an angle grinder.

    Look familiar?

    Slip joint pliers may help remove the cover.

    The centre bar, that should unscrew though it'll be tight, you should be able to get the screwdriver onto the screw then?
