Drill it & use an 'easy out' stud remover.
Left hand thread tap that basically winds the stud out as it tightens in.
or unblot the one on the right( looking at the coloum) remove the flexible joint at the bottom and push the coloum towards the floor, the coloum has a u shape at that side, and it just slides out, then cut the shear bolt with a hacksaw etc
cheers for that cheese, will have a look at weekend
lol i need to do mine this week aswell

ive got to do a Cavlier one aswell.. removal of columnas i cant get the damn steering wheel off! lol
hammer and chisel it. my dad has done this before. he said it works as i was going to do mine
pop to makro or somewhere like that if you can as they have a tool for removing rounded off headed screws and bolts etc, mine worked a treat when i did exactly the same thing

You can't beat a hammer and chisel - one good hit and you should be able to undo it by hand
