Default Striped Screws! need help

I was replacing the belly pan on the AC utility and i striped a couples of screws, not just striped the head but it broke in half and part of the screw is still stuck in the frame. How should I go about getting out the screw so that i can put another one in? I was thinking of taking the dremle tool and just drilling out the old screw and put in a new one. Thanks in Advanced.

if you can drill a hole in the center of the broken screw you can use a easy out, most hardware stores or local tool stores have them in diifferant sizes, should only take you a few minutes
