Default Broken grounding point screw

Just went to add an additional ground wire and snapped the grounding point screw on the drivers side right off. Can I simply drill a new one into the chassis right beside it?

Thanks

Just drill out the bolt you snapped off. Do you know what a "easy out" is? Drill a hole in the broken bolt, use that tool and remove. Next time remember, "that's tight enough"...we've all done it!
