Default Help I've rounded me nuts off

Hi

Due to my ham fisted approach I have managed to round of one of the hex bolts attaching my engine mounting plat to the chassis, due to using wrong size allan key and giving it too much when doing up

Is my only option now to drill the head off and take the plat off and drill the remains out or is there another way

Thanks
Mike

You should stop playing around with your nuts. I've told you before about this. [sm=lol.gif][sm=lol.gif]

Bet thats the last time you will try and take your mini hex bolts out with a air impact wrench [sm=punching.gif][sm=punching.gif]

I dare not look at the mess of my car yet. Think mine may be even dirtier than yours.
