%#$@ broken fog light stud
 

ok so I was trying to install my jdm fog light and got to the last bolt and the stud just spun, so my question is how do i get the bolt off now?

Try a heat gun to melt the locktight thats on the stud, if that don't work basically destroy the dummy light lens to drill a hole to access the head of the studs to clamp needle nose vise-grips to keep the stud from spinning while trying to remove the 10mm nut. I used a wood spade bit. Be CAREFUL you don't go deep. you only want to remove enough plastic around the head of the stud to access it, and make it big enough to reach the head of the stud with needle nose vise grips or pliers. May the force be with you!! Lol
Here's what mine liked like.

The pictures that Triple posted is what I exactly did. Should have done that from the get go, rather than fighting with those stupid nuts.

This reminded me of the Demon bolts on the stock cats... :mad:

holy **** ok thanks for the help triple's going to try that after lunch +1 rep to you

I must have gotten off the hook easy. The bolts came right off mine.

god i hated those bolts too!!! hahahaha DEMON bolts :roflpuke2:

That's another quick option, if you have a dremel with a cutoff wheel. Goodbye nuts
Thanks Ken. :tup:

:tup:

thanks for the help guys :tup: here's a few pics of it all done and what I ended up doing to my factory blank to get it out, looks like triple's

you shot it with a bb gun? :icon14:

This is going to a special place.

I knew that was going to happen! :bowrofl:

:bowrofl: How'd you know?? no I only had a 1/4 inch drill bit at my house and didn't want to drive to my shop to get a bigger bit so I just drilled a bunch of holes untill the stud was exposed.
