Default Problem removing ECU

I was&nbsp\\;attempting to remove ECU from my '04 Road King Custom so I could install V&amp\\;H Fuel Pac, only to find that the bolts holding the ECU in place would only spin and not back out.
&nbsp\\;
Anyone run into this problem, and if so, how did you&nbsp\\;get around it?&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
I tried to drill a small hole and "pin" the nut in place so I could remove it, but no luck....
&nbsp\\;
Any help is appreciated.
&nbsp\\;

Center punch and drill the head off the bolt.&nbsp\\; Worked for me...

It happen to me too on my RKC 02. I finally bought a new base plate (70348-02). I cut the old base plate to get the thread bushing out.

I hope it helps.

Mine stripped also. Used wire ties to hold the fuel pak onto the ecu. It's covered anyway.
