Vantage camber/caster bolt replacement

Hi guys, I took my 2006 v8v to get the alignment done however despite soaking the camber and caster bolts all night and heating them up to help adjust they are just not moving (rusted) and one even snapped when trying.

Is the only place to get replacements at the aston dealer?i need them asap

thanks!

I think they may be Ford bolts. I know they are stretch bolts, so after a few alignments, you may want to replace them. Oops, sorry I bumped an old post:-(

I put Metal Free Anti Sieze on all my bolts and nuts. Including wheel nuts.
