  • Edit: never mind, I misunderstood the question - thought you were talking about a stripped screw head, not that the hole threads were stripped

    ~~ I can’t see the stripped screws very well in that photo. But I’ve had some previous success with stripped screws by using a pliers to grip the outside of the head to turn it.

    Sometimes an alternative bit can help (eg: using a hex bit for a stripped torx screw).

    Putting a rubber band or other elastic material in between contacting surfaces (ie: in the stripped hole or around the head) can also help with these approaches sometimes.

    You might also be able to deform/reshape the head (eg: dremel or grind flat sides onto the circumference of the head) to get a better trip with the pliers. Can take while, but might be the best option in some cases. ~~
