Get replacements on hand and drill the old ones out. They’re stupidly soft for some weird reason. My driver’s door strike can loose without effort, but in the interim I was going to swap the rear onto the driver’s door until the replacement came. The rear door bolts all tried to round off, so I left them alone.
At least that would be my approach. They would be easy to drill out and simple to grab ahold of once the strike is removed. -D > On Feb 26, 2017, at 4:43 PM, Scott Ritchey via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > I tried to replace the driver's door striker on my 82 SD (same symptoms and > cause) but I Couldn't get the screws lose.
