Stripped transmission mount bolts

I think I stripped a tranny mount on the passenger side. the threading the bolt goes into.

I have not dug to deeply into it yet and was curious if anyone has experience with this.

Can you get to the back side of the mount from inside the car to just put a different bolt in there with a nut on from the inside of the car?

You can not get to the backside of the mount from inside the car. The mount is actually welded to the main unibody. The best thing would be to get a tap the same size as the good bolt and tap it out.

Let us know how it goes, it sounds like it would really suck to have that happen.
