Stripped screw in a difficult location

[aaronac8]

I stripped a phillips head screw in a difficult location to get to (see diagram, it is the lower screw of the RFC unit on an acura 2011 RL). How do I remove it without damaging the RFC unit? I need to remove the RFC unit to remove the ac condenser fan motor for replacement. Thank you.

a lot of them you can use a socket on…. if you can go that route if not you have a few options… use a srew exctactor and try you luck on that… see if you can take the fender or wheel well off and see if you can get to the back of it and see if that helps… weld a rod on it and try unscrewing with it… take a dremal tool and cut the head off or drill the head off… would be hard but as a last resort… you can also try the chisle methide by chissling it by unscrewing it with the chisle
