went over a speed bump earlier and now my engine is nearly touching the ground, looks like its ripped all the bolts off the mount and now theres bolts sheared off in the holes. how will i get the old ones out to remount the engine? was going to attempt to remount it myself until i saw the bolts are sheared off, how much is this going to cost me to get done at a garage? its the drivers side mount by the way not gearbox side

are the bolts sheared off in the block or in the rubber engine mount?

shouldnt cosrt you a lot to have fixed, if the mount itself is fine.
only problem is if the sheered bolts have cracked the block where the threads are, or for that matter getting them out could be tricky. sure a garage would be able to get them out though
