Cold chisel on the heads of the break-off bolts to turn them.

those little round things are actually the heads of the screw.
If you get a chisel or a good screwdriver apply it to the head at an Angle so when you hit the screwdriver it is actually turning the Head of that screw backwards.
just take the blade of the Screwdriver and the head of the bolt on the RIGHT side,it will start moving counter-clockwise and you can turn them out,
Afterwards just put a regular threaded bolt in.
