I agree with the use of the Dremel tool, but I've had good luck using their straight carbide router  bit to cut stainless or other metals.  they cost about $8 at bigger Walmarts or your local model  train hobby shop(hobbytown?).

        Ed, a Dremel or Dremel replica with fibre reinforced cut off wheel 
  tool works just great for the tight spots.  Get a few of the cut off wheels 
  as you will use them up quickly.  An ordinary hand held grinder with a cut 
  off wheel works for those bolts more accessible.  You may find that the part 
  of the bolt still remaining in the flange hole you need to use again may be 
  hardened and difficult to drill out.  Use hardened drill bits for drilling 
  stainless steel to get these holes back in use. 

  Happy New Year
