I did what they all said plus some... Here is was I tried.


*welded extention to lug* ( I could only do half of it because There wasnt any room to ge to the bottom, that broke)

*easy out* Didnt really work since drill bits are brass

The lug tool that they are talking about... yup... That didnt fit inside the hole because it was way to small. As you can tell in the 1st pic


Drilling may have work had the tap not been titanium.

We used a impack gun to try and take it off ... nada. When I took it to the shop to get the weld put on it kept snaping since they could only get half of it.

hahaha "so dont buy a vw."

All you had to do was weld a NUT onto the lug bolt. You weld the inside of the nut to the lug. Pretty retard proof.
