hey all....i overtigtened the LH tailights..and the next time i try to chnage a rverse bulb....the 2 bolts came off..i mean the 10mm nut n bolt came off away from the tails...my question is....does any1 knows how to get those darn things off?....ive tried using a plier hold it real tight n use the 10mm wrench to turn it..but to no conclusion..can any1 help?....

PB Blaster gets anything loose.

ill get pics of this issue in the weekeend...ty

I have been there. The nuts have a tendency to strip the bolts very easily, the the bolt just rips out from the plastic. In the past, I have used a special aircraft glue. Sometimes, u just got get a new set of taillights(used).
I know, I have been through two sets already.

*sigh*...

but madmods how u took them bolts off?....

1. buy pb blaster
2. spray on bolts
3. wait
4. twist off
5. ???
6. profit

Visegrips and wrench

As madmods said, molegrips and a vice to get the nut off the bolt, then I would try making the hole in the plastic so that it is wider on the inside than the outside then just use a hot glue gun to stick the bolt back into the plastic, maybe even crimp a small washer onto the knurled end of the bolt and then glue it so that it won't just pull out of the glue.

Hope it helps.

Tried drawing a picture with characters on here but it doesn't like it. I will do one and photobucket it if necessary.
