i actually picked some up yesterday. they strip out real easy. try a different size driver, easy out, reverse drill bit, ect... do a search on bolt extraction.

I did this last week. I just drilled the tops off, start with a small drill and try to get as center as possible, then go up to at the biggest the size of the head of the screw. I Think I only had to drill up to a 3/16" and the heads popped right off, then I took the cap off and unscrewed the rest by hand. Now I found some screws that stick out of the cap so I can use pliers or something if I need to.

I didnt know that was a common problem im realived to know im not the only one. Mine arent completely stripped out but i stopped as soon as they started and i was puttin some muscle into it and they werent budging honda made sure they werent comin out.
