I think the VRS uses a difference console on the passenger side than the other models just because the 6sp gearbox takes up more room

The second item 2, 6Q0199293E, here.

Common problem unfortunately.  Buy a new bolt too (item 7), obviously, as the stuck one will either never come out, or be damaged beyond re-use.

You can squirt penetrant jizz down the inside of the thread and work it back and forth, I had to do this on mine for the same reason, it still tore out a couple of threads but they were easily cleaned out of the bolt and it went back in much better with a little copaslip to help it torque down. The thread in the alloy is very long so if you lose a few turns it doesn't matter, as long as it torques back up properly.

I feel that pain and GSF sell them for £64
