Thats the right bitch!!!

Only one thing i can think of is to weld leaver on the bolts top and try to get it off. I might be wrong! Welding has to be very percise and quick! Riski but might work!

Use some stud extractors.

They are like a tap for re doing threads but have left hand thread on them. Just drill a small hole in the middle of bolt (whats left) and screw the stud extractor in. Eventually when it is far enough it will start to turn the bolt instead of screwing into it more.

If you are gonna buy some or one spend out cos cheap ones will break and leave a bigger mess.

Yeah use an easy out, as it screws in the other way the tighter it gets the looser the stud will get. Easy really, once its out enough get some mole grips on it. 8)
