Default brake caliper slide bolt sheared

How do I extract a sheared caliper slide bolt from the pad holder? Should I go find a replacement pad holder at a scrap yard? Or try to find a way to get it out?

You can try an easy out depending on the junk yard the new part may cast just as much as the easy out. But you gain a new tool for future use.
