Default Taillight screw stripped.

Well I put a little too much muscle into taking the screws out and well now the screw is stripped according to firestone after I took it there.
They suggested I take it to the dealership which I'm fine doing, but since their price for everything is way above normal, my question is if I can by chance to it myself at all?

If it is the head or threads of the screw, I would simply go to a hardware store and buy another screw. If it is the "receiving" side, I would buy a screw one size up and see if it will work.
