You can drill them. I broke one as well and drilled it out no problem

They look like hardened bolts, so I doubt if I'll be able to drill it out.

Could be worse: I thought I broke my Snapon ratchet.

If your snapon ratchet broke, that would be your excuse to get a good one!

I'd rather have a broken ratchet with a lifetime warranty than have to drill out a bolt. LOL

My notch with the factory tie downs, is they are at the bottom of the bed.
Maybe I will get another set, and install some higher up in the bed.

Does anyone have a link to where I can get the tiedowns themselves?

Adding some that go into the stake pockets on the bed rail are a good companion to the lower factory tie downs.
