So my roof ladder has some stripped screws on the rear panel. I guess I thought I would replace all sixteen of them with stainless screws and teenuts.

Looking at the rear panel, I saw a lot of number three phillips head screws. The only thing is, I cannot loosen one of them. I even tapped on an impact driver, but considering the fiberglass construction of the rear panel, I figured I would crack the hell out of it if I hit it much more or harder with a hammer.

My thought was, if I could get the panel off, I could get access to the other side of the surface and place the teenuts in there.

Is this approach wrong?
