i cant get the pics to work so click the links... thanks in advance

:1zhelp: :feedback: anyone? anything?

i hate those things, their like metal things, only i can think of for u is to cut around it or burn it out

drill them out, but only drill enough for it to release it.

thanks both of you guys
i have a soldering iron but its like for circut work... do think i could use it to melt the little plastic things back together? or solder the body to the chassis?

Chances are you'll screw up stuff if you use heat. Get a hacksaw or a dremel for that job.

i was using a dremel to get it off i was talking about getting it back on.. would model glue work if not heat?

drill them out, but only drill enough for it to release it.


Yeah what he said... I had to find out the hard way
