Trying to get them off, but none of them are budging. Vice grips and DW40 not helping, just chewing the heads up. Can I drill these out without ruining the 'screw recepticals?' (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) (sorry, I'm tired...) Although I'm assuming that the reason I can't get them to move is because they're rusted in there. Flat-head screws suck, btw.

When I do get these out, and assuming I have an outer long that only needs minor rust repairs, how do I go about refastening the under side of the rocker panels?

Thanks!
