there are bits that drill into extractors no problem but they cost lodsa dosh. ALWAYS USE CUTTING FLUID DESIGNED FOR THE METAL YOU ARE CUTTING.

there are mobile stud extractor companies out there. you could try giving one of them a phone?

Obviously this guy is too far away from you, but I've seen him post some great repairs on broken studs etc, so as Bib suggested find one in your area
