What do I do? I got a n escalade shifter from timmy and went to install it tonite. I tried unscrewing the bolt but it wouldnt budge. So I asked my father to give it a whirl, and what do you know...STRIPPED IT! :emotions122: How can I get it out now? Any help is greatly appreciated

Not sure what screw you are referring to but can you get a very thin screw driver in between the head of the screw and the shifter? If so, try to put it in between as much as you can and while you unscrew it, try prying up with it at the same time!! If I saw a pic of what you are referring to, I'm sure I could come up with an idea or others on here could chime in as well!

Well if you already got it put back together then don't worry about it, but if you still need to get it off to do what you need to do, then post it up when you get a chance!! There's enough of us around here to figure something out!
