Thank god it worked but took an hour or so. Just a waist of time as this really shouldn't happen.
If the bolt has snap off with the flange still attach to the HEX part shouldnt you be able to undo all the wheel bolts, take the wheel off and just use a vice grip to undo the broken piece that is still in the hub?
