Need Help Asap!

I was going to change to battery to an optima since the old looked kinda crappy, well I loosened the terminal bolts and everything was fine, but as I was going to loosen the battery fastener bolt it SNAPPED!
the old battery was removed but now I cant securely fasten the other battery!

The bolt was badly corroded and snapped just above the little black plastic tray in which the battery stands.

Please help me what should I do to get the remains of the bolt out??? Should I drill it ?

I welcome any suggestions

I'd drill it out or get one of those bits that reverse it out.
