I was trying to get the old discs off the VTi hubs I've picked up, but the 2 little screws holding it to the hub are stuck fast and won't shift even a little even after applying heat and a LOT of penetrating oil.

I'm wondering if I could just drill the heads of the screws out and not bother using them in future and having the disc secured with just the wheel nuts / wheel etc, is this ok? I don't want to just run in, do it, and discover I've completely fucked something up lol
