What is your best method to take out stripped bolts or allen screws?

They sell special bits that are specifically designed for that. Some auto parts stores carry them, but your best bet is Sears.

EaseOut.. or Easy Out... they are like a inverted drill bit.. You grab the right size that fits in the head of the screw(bolt) and you tap in in with a hammer.. its left hand thread to the more you turn it... the more pressure you put to remove said screw(bolt)... hope that helps...
