I used a dremel tool with a cutting disc to cut a slot in the remains of the
sheer bolts. Then you should then be able to remove them with a small
slotted screw driver. You should be able to access them thru the speedo &
tach holes. Definitely replace with cap screws.

More than likely, you will need a broken screw extractor kit. The steering
lock had sheer bolts, so the heads are broken off. You will have to get a
set of those "backwards" twist drill bit things made to remove broken
screws. It's a pain in the arse, ask how I know. I replaced the sheer
bolts with allen head cap screws.
