I'm trying to remove my rocker panels to inspect and clean out the longs but can't get the cheesehead screws loose. I've sprayed them with PB Blaster every day for a week, to no avail. Any other tips?

Aha, good point Mike. I forgot that you'd have to get that side of the car up pretty durn high to be able to get the impact in there.
Vice grips it is! |
