My strut tower bolt was stripped by my mechanic when installing new suspension... and now, I would like to remove my top strut brace... and found the bolt is stripped...I am really sad... my car is brand new......what can I do to remove it..
![Frown](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
And I would also like to order a new bolt... where can I find a new one?
Many thanks

Thanks for your information, I live in Hong Kong, I just found out the part number through EPC and will try to order through dealer tomorrow.
Just one thing making me confused, what do you mean by retaping the bolt hold in the strut? Would you mind clarifying a bit more? thanks bro
