Gonna head to my suspension shop tomorrow, they'll probably have all the stuff. Left handed screws, drill bits, etc.

I am pretty sure we can get the damn screw out . . . the problem is doing it without destroying the steering wheel

Thats funny, I went to my suspension guy on saturday for help with the f'ing fuca to subframe bolt. He lent me all of his drill bits..lol

At Home Depot, in their tool department, where they have drill bits, I saw they had this stuff you put on the screw head and its supposed to help get a better bite on the head for applications like this. I forgot what its called... BUT if that screw is tight, not sure how well itll work .
