Went to change the Spark plugs on the Balt today and havent changed them out from when i bought it from the dealer, went to pull the cover off and one of the bolts stripped on me so i couldnt get to them...eh
So I've tried a couple things but they didnt work so well.... Does Anyone have any ideas what i could do without taking it back to the dealer?

Same thing happened to me yesterday. You need an extractor bit.

An extractor bit would help for sure...

Right on, thanks guys!!... you wouldnt happen to know where i could pick one of those up at?

Coblasts

You could drill the head off carefully and then the remaining stud you should be able to turn out with your fingers once the part is removed or a visegrip.
The bit should center up in the hole for the driver,use a bit a little bigger than the threaded part of the bolt using one thats been taken out already for reference.

I bought my extractor set at canadian tire, around $20, but its great for any stripped bolt you may need in the future

X2 I would be looking at Canadian tire or sears maybe?

If you have a dremel with a cutting wheel, you could cut a notch in the head to accept a flathead screwdriver.
