i know u feel mate, ive broken off just about everything on my rx7, as the series 3 are made so much lighter everything seems to break a hell of alot easier like the front lights i cracked one of them the other day, and while i was talking the dash out i broke a bit off that it makes u go mad.

Drill out the old screws that are in there, get a tap and die set and then proceed to tap out new screw holes and go buy 2 new slightly larger screws.
