As the title says, half of the radiator drain plug broke off in the radiator. Is there a way I can somehow drill/screw/beat/wish this thing out?
Yeah, I know. I'm a moron.

Mark: "Didn't you just break a rocker arm?"
Me: "Yeah, I don't think I've learned my lesson."
Mark: "You never will."
I don't understand. The only bottom hose is on the other side. It's not imperative that I replace it this instant; however, it's probably going to start leaking soon.

heat the tip of a flathead screwdriver with a torch, stab the broken plug with the hot screwdriver, and twist.
FYI, mercedes use the same drain plug if you can't find one for a BMW. I did the exact same thing about 6 years ago..
I see what you did there...
