Those screws are a pain. You will probably have to use every trick you =
can think of to get them out.
I use ATF as a penetrating oil.
=20
I believe I did use an impact tool to start them.
The problem here is that all the screws have wear points and the long =
screws are full length threaded.
One of my long screws also had a slight bend.
=20
Use heat, use penetrating oil, use a very good screwdriver that fits =
well and work them slowly out and in as needed; they will turn out.
I had to buy a BSF tap to make the threads good again.

I'm reupholstering the seats this winter. The big box from SS is due =
soon, so I've been investigating taking things apart. =20
=20
The side cover plates came off easy, and they're already stripped and =
primed. So the first difficult challenge is getting those large screws =
out. They won't come free with just standard screwdriver effort. So =
what have you guys done to get them out? I've already had Liquid Wrench =
on them for a few hours.
=20
I was thinking of one of those impact tools that you hit with a hammer. =
Any other ideas out there?
