if it is stripped, it still should come out. You will then have to buy a tap and re-thread the hole.
if you can't get it out, you will have to buy a reversed drill bit to drill it out

Rep Power: 0 are talking about the one on the bottom row in the direct center of mani? or a bolt on the top row? if its the top row, u'll have to drill it out. if its the bottom row, u'll have to get another stud to put in there and good luck getting the old one out.
