Set back in holes.
Typically got one done ok, and the other one is a bitch

Put the screwdriver in as far as it'll go.
Get 1 hammer.
BANG it a few times.
Push ALL your bodyweight behined and try to turn.
Try banging with a hammer. Its the shock through the screw trying to break it free slightly to turn. Also the screwdriver may be its own screw points into the screw head again.
Otherwise, its a case of drilling the bugger out im afraid

I already tried the screwdriver idea, I think some little jap dude decided to tigerseal the threads on the screws as they won't budge

Drive CW round M25
Take J1 off

One is exposed and I'm considering chiseling the head off

get a dremel and grind the top off, then take the thread out of the wingmirrow with some molegrips once the mirror is off.
