If you have broken off the allen wrench, the socket is probably rounded also. You can drill them out starting with a small pilot bit in the center, and drill in two steps until an easy out can extract the bolt. If you have a jobber supply house nearby, use a left handed bit for the last pass. It will generally bring the bolt with it.
