How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive had a description and great drawing of the
technique. In fact there are loads of great drawings in that book which is a

I wound up using the smallest easy-out I had, on an 8 long .25
socket extender with a quick-coupler. The fat side of the extender
just fit into the drill, and with the ramps there was plenty of
working space. Bolt end came out inside 5 minutes including rigging
the coupler; new bolts went in

I'm putting a star on this email, very good trick!
I'll be putting in a bazillion of those 6mm suckers once I get my

or the torque wrench. :)

Last night I took Max's kick-in-the-pants and spun the front one
mostly out with a punch; it had enough resistance on the broken nub of
the bolt to spin it, and the bolt was about flush with the bottom edge

Good! If you only end up with one 6mm bolt broken off, I would
suggest that it won't have a big impact if you leave it that way.
As for torque. you really don't need a torque wrench for 6mm bolts.

So... I finally finished the SDL's oil pan, after the poor thing
sitting all winter today was a nice shiny day - high of 73 - so I was
