Have you tried an easy out? That's proably a dumb question, but it always seems to work as a last chance attempt. Just drill out the center with a drill bit (use a medium size bit, then tap the easy out in, and turn it out. It should take those fuckers right out. If you have any more questions..feel free to ask.

Have you ever heard of the tool called the Gator Grip? I heard it works real well on stripped bolts. They sell them at Sears for like $30 or somethin.
