Default Need help removing bolts from rotors

Hi there. I'm replacing my rear rotors on my 96 Accord. But I'm having trouble removing the 2 phillips screw. Each time I tried it, It looks like it was going to be stripped. Anyways I sprayed some PB blaster and still won't budge. Help ME! Any solution?

a really quick question. I know NAPA sells it but its too far. Does Autozone carry it? How about Kragen?

Read my write up on how to do the rear brakes...and yes you need an impact driver..to hard hits with a rubber mallet and those suckers are out...also you'll have to hit the back of the rotor with a rubber mallet while you turn it to get the rust to break loose

LOL!!!! nah. I did read you tutorial. It is helping me right now. ROFFLES. Anyways, worst come to worst, if it doesn't work, I'll use the screw extractor.

I'm going to NAPA first to buy it. I don't need it for anything else. Does any place rent those???
