okay the other day I was messing with my mustang. I went to tighten this screw, and I broke the head of it off. Don't ask me how it happened, because I really dont know. There is no way to get the bottom of the screw out. How can I get it out? Could I just take a drill with a small drill bit and drill it out?

how big is the bolt? they sell kits to get bolt out like that. you just drill out the center of the bolt and use a reverse-threaded screw (basically) to get it out

the bolt is pretty small. The head of it was about as big around as the end of my pinky finger, if not a little smaller. Do you know where I could get one of these kits?

where did it brake? on the car i mean. you can just drill then re tap it with a tap and die kit

it's called an "ez out" sears or any hardware sells them. different sizes so know the size of the bolt, not exact, they are in a "range"

I have E-Z Outs they are garabage compares to the thread in type, you want to drill out the center and only leave about the width of a quater maybe a bit more, then go to any Auto Tool store... IN Canada I use Acklands or Lordco get the reverse thread easy out and it should pop outta there... if not you have to get the proper drill bit drill the whole thing out VERY carefully and the you have to re tap the threads.
