Broken bolt

[Csward12]

So, I broke the head off of one of the 8 bolts that mount the tire carrier to the tailgate. Seems very sturdy still, but does anyone have a suggestion as to how to get the remainder of the bolt out?

Go to the dealership. Lie to them and say you weren't using a cheater bar.

Lol. Unfortunately they aren’t factory bolts. They are the ones that came with the new bracket.

Ah, so not during removal. Well, get you a nice screw extractor, a drill, and a tap. If you aren't comfortable doing it yourself, maybe paying the dealership to do it anyway isn't a terrible idea.
