Default Broken Bolt In The Rear LCA!!!

Okay, so I'm putting some new K-Sports on my 94 Coupe, and I'm dropping the rear LCA. I removed the strut bolt (the middle one), and then went to loosen the trailing arm bolt, and snap...it broke. It broke off just at the end, so I could still drop the LCA and pull the strut. I'm at school now, so I don't have any pics, but I'm sure you can visualize a broken bolt. Its the bolt that has splines halfway up on it. We tryed using an EZ out, but my drill bits suck. So, I'm asking, what drill bit should I buy, and how hard are these to get out. There's still an extra inch of bolt sticking out that I can grab with vise grips, but I can't get any leverage or grip on the bolt. I know I can search, but there's about 1500 threads on broken bolts, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob.
