Default Im screwed... SOmething broke when trying to remove front mount

I was removing the passenger side front lower torque mount on my 95 integra, and bang, one of the bolts started spinning freely. So my guess is that its tack welded on the inside on the frame rail, and the tack weld broke. WTF can i do?? I am scratching me head. I was wondering if i take all the front off, and the bumper support, if that will give me access to the inside on the frame rail.

Someone please help me out

Is this the mount by the passanger or driver side?

Its one of the bolts that holes the mount to the frame?

On my 96 B18B, the bolts were not welded in. Its possible you just stripped the threads (I am having a hard time picturing whats happen), if thats the case you can buy a drill and retapper and a slightly larger bolt and be all set.

I think there is actually a nut welded to the inside of the frame there.

To get the mount off, you should be able to unbolt the 3 bolts on the tranny then remove the large nut on the torque mount and slide it out. You could also try and get a hacksaw blade inbetween the frame and the mount and try and cut that bolt. Only problem with that is, the nut and end of the bolt are going to remain inside the frame and might be real noisy rolling around in there unless you take the bumper off and pull it out.
