Bracket NOT coming off!! HELP
i took out my head unit, and got one side of the stock bracket out (i need the brackets to secure my aftermarket). the other side is still in there with 2 screws..
well, after stripping them with screwdrivers (manual and power) i dirlled a hole thru them, like i was told to do so by a few people
now...they're just hollow screws, they will NOT come out..and all grip has been lost
how the HELL do i get these out???!
thanks in advance..

you need to use a drill bit that is exactly the same size as the screw. it will come out. i did it with a 2002, damn screws
