Stripped screw

Well today i broke the stock H-Plate on my NSX. When i was replacing it one of the screws that connects the H-plate to the motor mount stripped completely! I think the only thing i can do is either buy a new alloy motor mount or replace it with another stock one. Would anyone happen to have a sotck motor mount for the RM chassis lying around? And would be willing to sell it to me? Thanks!

Did you try Dremeling or notching the screw and using a common/flat screw driver to remove the stripped screw?

Put a soldering iron on the screw head for a few soconds.It'll loosen up the threads a bit and make it a little easier to get it out when you can grab it with something.If you can break out the H-plate from around the screw just heat it up and grab it with some needlenose pliers.
