Yep, that is the best repair and like Barbara says once you have what you need in the car it goes pretty quick...but until you have that together I like boot leather and CA glue. Slice a couple slivers off, soak some CA glue on the stuff them in the hole. The size of the sliver is trial and error. Works great for most stripped screws...
