97 OEM talon foglights

[suicideking]

I'm looking to replace burnt-out bulbs in my oem fogs, but the previous owner used two different types of bolts to attach them.

One side used phillips-head bolts with nuts on the back of the plates; I've managed to strip the head on them both they're in there so tight (and that was after using wd40). Not even the nuts move.

The other side uses a simple hex-pattern bolt.

Anyone else have this much trouble with their oems?

Doesn't sound very OE if he's already stripped out one side so badly that he had to add nuts.

Hack those off there, and replace them with stainless hardware.
