As I was working on replacing my struts I snapped one of the rear pinch bolts. I broke the head of the bolt off. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get it out?

Search the forum. There were several large threads on this in the past month or so with lots of tips and links.

It is a common problem up in these here parts...
