Crusoe Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Spray some WD-40 on a cotton bud and dab that on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) If you have a small-tipped soldering iron, hold the tip in the screw head cross-slot for 30 seconds or so, then let it cool for a couple of minutes and try it with firm pressure applied, from a correct size cross-head screwdriver, as you turn it. There is the risk that the plastic cover will soften a touch, but that's a lesser risk than rounding the crosshead... This is the standard method of removing snapped-off screws too...
