Has the bolt sheared or just come loose and missing?
 
The plastic cap may pop off to get to the bolt

Just ordered the bolt coming tomorrow but i haven't got a clue how to fit it. I had a look but I cant find anything to come off. Nippon autos says this happens quite often anybody got clue how to fit it.

Hi Kazamari,

I've just had to replace the same piece of glass, only to find that I'm missing the same bolt and cap that you mentioned you'd managed to find? If you could let me know the part number and where you got it I'd be very grateful. Hopefully you managed to find a way to fit it, as I see you didn't end up getting a response to that question on here..

Thanks in advance,

Philip
 
Remove the catch to make it easier to work on & try drilling the broken bolt out?

Looks like the broken piece of thread can be got at by levering the plastic cap off (as Andy has mentioned)

Which will give you access to the broken stud from the other end, you may have more work with! try loosening using a pair of small grips if so!.
