Snapped Bolts....please Help

Hi all

I went to replace the core plugs at the weekend and three of the rocker cover bolts have sheared off due to being rusted in place (couldn't see this before removing otherwise they would have got a good soaking of Plus Gas first).

I've ordered some impact stud extractors to get the studs out but have just spoken to my local dealer and apparently the bolts come with the rocker cover and can't be purchased separately. Not wanting to fork out £270 for a new cover can anyone tell me if there are any other options?

A quick eBay search has turned up some second hand covers but I'm not sure how much I'd trust the bolts on these. The other results showed some after market stainless steel jobbies but these mention that they are for the metal rocker cover.

Can anyone help?? Have managed to get hold of a car for this week but will need to fix this over the Easter weekend!

Cheers
