Putting your wheel on and tightening the lugs will set it in place permanently.

Get a new stud, stick it in there, and put everything back together.

Like Ian said it's pretty easy.
Here's how I did it:
Remove the wheel, caliper, and pads.
Remove caliper bracket and rotor.
Hammer out the stud with a rubber mallet.
Put the new stud in.
Put a stack (4-5) of washers over the stud and tighten a lug nut to pull the stud into place.
Remove washers, reinstall parts, and put on the wheel.

I would just pop in a pair of ear plugs and bust out with my air hammer (thats why i use the ear plugs, if uve heard that thing u know what im talkin about!) and pop em out in a few seconds
u can instll them the same way just gotta be careful with the hammer damn thing can really jarred out of ur hands if ur not holding on hard enough.

Damn Damn Damn. I almost got it done till the last stud. It took me 1 hour to do the left side. Then I got it down and it took me 10 min for the right side then I was putting the last stud in place, then all of a sudden the damn bolt got stuck on the stud and i couldn't take it off. So i had to cut it off and now my car sitting helpless on a stand for another lonely night. Damn my moms thunderbird, girls look at me funny in that car.
