Used a six point, ripped off the points, extractor pretty much made it round,
vice-grips won't fit into that tight space, torch is gonna cause some
excitement when the magnesium fan lights up (which will solve the problem!).
I'm gonna try to drill off the head like a rivet, pop the pulley and fan off,
then deal with the left over chunk of bolt still stuck in the backing plate.
Let ya know what happens next!
