Stuck on For the Republic pt2

First time out of the vault
So, I seem to have hit a roadblock. I had Vanessa earlier in the game, and we went to the Brotherhood of Steel bunker much earlier in the game. While I was there I decided to displace Elder MacNamarra and put in Hardin.

Now, many hours down the road, I'm at the quest to blow up the Brotherhood's bunker for the NCR. I'm interested in the diplomatic solution, but it's not available from Hardin. I would blow up the bunker just to get by, but the quest marker is stuck outside the bunker, which means I have no idea where to go or who to talk to, and it makes it seem like the quest is stuck on a previous checkpoint.

Can anyone help me out? Where do I go? How do I either make a treaty with the brotherhood or blow it up, and why is my quest marker stuck outside? Has anyone dealt with this?
 
I'm positive that to blow up the thing you need

[spoiler:7b00402456]to use the computer on the bottom floor, the one in the Virtual Reality training room. Generating the self-destruct code also requires 3 keycards, forget from whom but it tells you.[/spoiler:7b00402456]

Don't know about the diplomatic approach though.
 
You can't get the diplomatic solution if you replaced the Elders from what I have heard, which makes sense. The first Elder takes a more cautious approach to things and the one you replace him with just wants to fuck bitches up.

As far as the self destruct, you have to get three key cards for the terminal in the VR room (it tells you who) or have a science skill of 100 to just hack the Self-Destruct Terminal.
 
To blow the bunker:

[spoiler:4a9e19785f]you have to pickpocket 3: the first Elder sitting at the main desk on Level 2. Hardin's got the next one, and you can swipe it when he's sleeping. The last is in the VR chamber, he is the Head Scribe. You can then blow the bunker.

You can also kill every BOS member in there and leave the bunker intact, and you'll finish the mission. Turn on the automated cannons to do most of the work. You can net over 30k caps if yo' sell all their gear. But it's time consuming cause no one will carry power armor for you (it's faction armor) [/spoiler:4a9e19785f]
