If they broke with heads on them, what makes you think an easy out is going to get them out? The best luck we had in machine shops is left hand drill bits. Most industrial supply houses will stock them. Be EXTREMELY careful center punching the bolts before drilling. Some poeple have had good luck using soldering guns to heat the bolt after drilling it. If you get it good and hot and then let it cool, it will crush itself inside the more solid metal, if you get the walls of the bolt drilled out thin enough.
Good luck.
