Default Number plate bulb holder screws

Doing a pre MOT check on the D3 this evening and noticed the nearside number plate light dead.

I have a replacement bulb, so set about what should be a 5 min job however it was not to be.

First screw came out no problem, so onto the second and its stuck fast. I've tried all sorts to get it to budge but its staying put and in my efforts I have damaged the head giving even less for the philips screwdriver to attach to.

Looks like I'll have to get the MOT place to drill it out or something.

Everything else is working, except this lamp and it's MOT day on Thursday.
