Scored a major result tonight.
I snapped one of my upper bolts a couple of weeks ago and was well pissed but tonight using long nose pliers I managed to get the snapped bolt out in about 5 minutes.
The bolts have a shear point and are easily accessable with long nose pliers as there is still about 5 mm left protuding inside the hole.

Saved me a few bob not going to a garage.

So if you manage to snap your upper bolts don't worry get the pliers out.
