Can I borrow a drill?

Anyone have a really high-powered cordless drill I can borrow for a few hours? Maybe an 18V even?

I grabbed a leather interior for my Z but when I was taking out the upper back seat I could only get one of the torx screws out. the other one got stripped and I couldn't get any grip on it. The only solution I see is to drill that bastard out. I've got a wimpy little 9v Ryobi. I need cordless because the car is in the junk yard. Any help is appreciated.

were you using a torx screwdriver or ratchet with torx bit? just because I find that you get more torque and leverage with a ratchet... even if the screw head is a little stripped.

Was using a 3/4 drive ratchet. I couldn't get the thing to budge it was torqued on so good. This bolt connect the rear seatbelt to the body, so it's in there really good.
