    Stuck screw when removing climate control panel

    I'm trying to replace some burnt out bulbs in the climate control panel. I have all of the screws removed except for one, it's directly below the temp dial.

    The screw is in there tight, I've tried my hardest to get it out. The space there is tight, have to use a stubby screwdriver to get in there.

    I've thought about shoving a Dremel up in there to just grind the thing off.

    Any ideas?

    Remove the center console to try and get more room. Use something like a wedge between the trans tunnel and screwdriver to apply force up on to the screw and use pliers to try and turn the screwdriver. Dont use to much force, you might break the HVAC panel or lower dash.

    I know I had one hell of a time getting that screw out, and I never put it back in.
