Stripped Bolt Sugestions

[HyperHawk]

Alright so I'm putting in Clear corners on my camaro and I got the right one in by taking the headlight out and unscrrewing everything and whatnot. TIme for the Left one. Well I go to unbolt the Headlight Casing, and the Bolt just turns and turns but doesnt come out. The entire inside turn with the screw. Anything i can do about this?

This thread should probably be in a different section.

I wasnt trying to be mean or anything just letting you know. you can probably have someone move it so you get more responses.

Good luck :tup:

try wedging something underneath the head of the screw while you turn it out. I'm not sure exactly what your talking about, pics might help.

Sorry, for the bad Image. OK the bolt in the middle is the one bolt to get the headlight casing out, The purple around it turns with the bolt and the bolt doesnt come out.

if you can get a dremmel in there and make a design like follows.... + then you may be able to screw it out. Otherwise good luck welding or drilling it out. Sucks!
