I always use a 12mm bolt... the pointed ones from an auto tranny case work great...

Use a junk bolt and clamp in a small pair of vice grips. You can then take a full swing (as full as you can get lying on your side cramped under the car) without bashing your finger. It's a pain in the ass, but it will come out.
