Default How to open my da*n 400EX carb?

Hey guys, how the hell do I open the 3 screws on top on my carb to have access to my needle? I've trying everything now, and the screws are stripped like hell.. How can I unscrew that, they seems tyo be very overtighten...

Any suggestion?

Yep....vice grips. Then replace those screws with some small allen head screws, and you'll never have to worry about it again.

These replacements screws, do I have to order them from my dealer, or I can buy them from any general parts store?
