Hi all, managed to get wings off the old gal but leeft with some snapped bolt studs where retained nut is hidden inside panels ie adjacent to rear door. Obviously need to remove these in order to rebolt wings. Any ideas how this might be accomplished please

You'll probably end up having to drill them out.

Yes probably the only way, but must be able to rebolt wing so I think I will have to run a tap through the retained nut. Obviously not built with removal in mind, but if anyone has any better ideas, I,d be glad to hear them.
