Well the little screws on the side of my unimount that hold the asa in
are stripped and stuck in the tightened position on my autococker..
Only 2 of them are and there both on the same side. And im going to
need to get the unimount off soon. Help would be appreciated.

| Does the screw stick out from the Unimount cage at all? Or is it flush with the cage? |

On one of the screws it does a little bit not enough to get with plyers im pretty sure.

If you go to your local Sears they sell screw extractor sets that have reversed threads to grip into the head of the damaged screw and continue to spin it out. http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes&vertical=TOOL&pid=00967372000 - http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes &vertical=TOOL&pid=00967372000 -------------
