OK...I decided to change my seat today on my 350x. I got all the nuts off except one the threads are stipped on either the nut or bolt what do I do?

Can you drill it out and get another bolt???or get it hot and snap it off

Well...Ill have to try that but these are brand new oem fenders that I dont want to ruin. The bolt that comes from the seat is turning. How can I stop it from turning?

Does the nut turn but not back off or tighten? If so, you can try reaching over the bolt with vice grips and pulling against the nut while turning to see if it will grab any good threads.

i had the same problem with a seat i had there are the 2 bolts that come from the seat pan and there is a thin peace of metal holding the 2 bolts well mine were so rusted the peace that holds them together snapped in the middle i just took the grinder to the bolt....

If you dont care about saving the bolt try this. Use a pair of vise grips to hold the very end of the bolt and back the nut off some, then you can cut the bolt under the nut without damaging the fenders.

Thanks for all the quick replies! But I just drilled it out. Took me a while because I had all soft compound drill bits but I got though lol :D
