Puddle light screw stripped

[CJL]

The torx screw that holds the mirror light lens is stripped,what would be the best way to remove?

You could probably drive it out with a left hand drill. Could it be slotted with a dremel tool, or similar, and a flat head used?

the only thing i can think of is what brooks said a left hand drill they do work get some pb blaster first and give it a little help If all else fails get a dremmel and cut just around the screw and to put it back use a bigger washer to grab the light...good luck

I think the left hand drill bit is a better choice for this. The screw is flush with the plastic lens and one small slip with the dremel and you would be needed a new lens too.

Worst case,where can I find lens's at?

A junkyard will probably be your only option for one unless you buy a whole new mirror.
