Hi there I've got a drywall plastic backbox and the screw holes have stripped can I change just the two clips so don't have to remove box as it's double plasterboarded and don't want to snap it pulling box out thanks :)
 
i doubt you would snap the board pulling it out unless they have boarded over it.

you can swap the wings or if you wanted put a mc box in then if you snap them again you can tap the back of the box

An example of the long term race to the bottom of quality of work in our industry, IMHO.
