Need to remove this stubborn bolt
#32
I highly recommend getting a set of these. Start carefully as close to center as you can, will save you lots of headaches! and if you are going to use easyouts, don't buy the cheapo ones! A good quality easyout (screw extractor) will bite when lightly tapped in with a small hammer, the cheap ones are for *****!

Wow, all these crazy drilling suggestions.
Best thing to use is Bolt-Outs. These look like a socket but have teeth inside that are reversed and bite into the bolt head. I bought a set from sears with different sizes and has worked great with no collateral damage.

Sure did! Didn't you see the gnaw marks on the perimeter of the bolt??
I'm not so sure those would have worked on this particular bolt since the head was so shallow. Interesting tool, though!
