Drill them out and then replace them.

Or go to a hardware store and get a set of stripped bit set for a drill gun that is make to remove stripped screws. I know Sears sells them. That should work too. But either way you going to have to replace the screws.

i figured out a better way (thanx mex)


hammer the phillips screw driver in
and use a clamp wrench to unscrew it

and use a tiny flat head and hammer the sides
of the screw to loosen it
