How does one insert a threaded insert to a tight surface in a guitar with the dimensions of the threaded insert is m4 x m6, 30mm

The thread of the wood of the screws on top are stripping and I want a permanent way rather than using toothpicks and glue. What tools or equipment do it need and what technique?

I plan on adding a threaded insert in trem claw of my guitar because they are stripping, how should i do this?

The measurements on what I will be using is m4 x m6, 25mm or 30mm. Use a RG7420, the trem claw here isn't my guitar because I'm too lazy to unscrew the backplate but it is really similar to this pic.
