Kind of a moot point John. I've been there, start with a small drill bit and drill through the center of the mess. Then go to a slightly bigger size. Keep working up and eventually the remnants inside the threads will fall apart. Be careful and stay off of the threads. But first, if you can get any hold on the bolt try heating on the rotor but stay away from the bolt. If you catch it before the heat gets to the bolt it may release. It's tricky. Rich

Just going to take it to a machine shop tomorrow, going to cost 45$ because I got the extractor stuck in the middle of it.

Bashan is giving you good advice. But you are right sometimes it's nesary to have someone else fix stuff. That's a bummer If you have a torch I would at least give it a try you might get lucky and get bolt to come out.
Good luck.

There is just not much hope to be able to drill thru an extractor, I believe they are a lot harder than most drill bits. There are ways to get around that. One way is to grind out taking a larger area then plugging the bigger hole and drill/tap. (Machine tools and shop)

Most of us do not have the right equipment to get things done so the best thing is to take it to someone who does have the equipment. Glad you got her done Alleyoop
