cant get off licence plate light screws

[thedon28]

any1 know any tricks or something..i tried everything

I had problems with this too! Just don't strip them.. then you're screwed! I partially stripped one and had to go to the depot to get a pick tool to help with leverage until I could turn it loose. Just keep trying with different screwdriver types..

[swrt83]

And then replace the screws with diff ones.. that's what I did!

where did u get the screws to replace it cuz i called audi and they said u need the plastic cover too and thats 17$

bull.. i took the one screw i got out to home depot and the guy found something that matched the thread width

i had to drill both of mine through.. (i have an 02)..... take the whole trunk apart, remove the lock... all that sh*t...... carefull man, dont destroy the screw..
