Oh boy...good luck.
Obviously, tear it ALL the way down.
Use the right stud puller, soak it for days, and then use a little heat.

Joe...I'd honestly say that 80% of the time it just breaks again, 20% it works.
Considering it's prime riding season for us, you might be better off finding a good, used set of cases...to be honest.

Good luck...

Well i have broken a few in my day, but i have always been lucky and have been able to tear it down and grabbed with a vise-grip and got it out, but you need some meat to grab though.

Once broke a stud myself but left 1/4 inch to play with, the vise grips did the job too!
Would of been alot easier had I soaked it with PB Blaster!

U COULD try cutting a alot in it with a cut off wheel and twisting it out with a flat head . i did this once on a forklift starter. good luck!

like most of em said good old vise grips do the trick for me.
