Depending on where the bolt snapped, you might try grounding the sides down and vice-gripping the remaining bolt out.

Did it break flush with the surface or deep in the bolt hole?
If it is flush with the surface, try cutting a slot or even and "X" in it with a dremel and use a flat head or phillips head screw driver to get it out.
