My mechanic broke 1 bolt on each side, is it possible to remove the remain broken bolt?

Best bet may be to drill it out.

Bump this up! Where can I find replacement for these two demon bolts? Anyone has the size or product number?

And can I reused the other oem bolts off the cats for the art pipes? Got my test pipes 2nd hand and I don't think it came with any hardware :rolleyes:

I used sprayed some pb blast let soak over night and all the bolts came out

From reading this if I can break the bolt head off I can get the cat off? If so, how? I snapped one of awhile ago and dstripped the other, decided to leave the oem cats on but if I'm able to just dremel the heads off to get them off I'll try again.
