I will put a fiver in Children in Need instead, now if I buy them and never use them you will be off my Christmas list.

You can buy ( easy outs) they are basically a left handed tap , so as you screw them in they undo the bolt or screw. I have used them loads.

Can you cut the clamp with a stanley knife or similar?

THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE HELP!!!
After drilling the bolt, the plastic clamp loosened and after a good 10 minutes of yanking on the grip ... it came free !!
Thanks again for the help

They are fine on larger stuff, not so good on a very small bolt, or at least that is what I have found.

The little uns do tend to snap off.

Could be right, although with my trade being rough would not be good.

What size Easy out would you use on a 3mm bolt?
