size of screw and kind that secures the rod holders

[Johncat]

Hello, would like to remove rod holders inside pantera 2023 center box.  I already stripped one screw thinking it was a phillips. Anybody know what kind and size screw that is?

 

Thanks

I would imagine it’s a #2 square drive. BCB has been using them forever.

Hello @johncat

My suggestion that you might try using a screw extractor kit.  You can take the screw to a hardware store to match the size and type; or contact the manufacturer for specifics.

 Here are a few tips you can check

The boats manual should list the screw types and sizes used.
Ensure you have the correct screwdriver bit to avoid stripping screws.
A bit of lubricant can help make screw removal easier.

penetrating oil might help loosen it up
