Has ne1 had any problems wiv this? or is it jus me? i bought 2 4inch pioneer components for my dash, i managed 2 take the grille off, but the problem is the screws. The position they are in makes it hard for me to allign the screw driver 2 successfully unscrew them and place my components in. Has ne1 got any tips for me 2 get rid of these screws without having 2 take the windscreen off? cheers.

An allen key shaped philips screw driver?
By components, do you mean seperate tweeters to bass drivers?

I've used a small 1/4 " socket set with a phillips bit in it. Gets them nicely. They are a bastard tho. :smiley:

i did basically same as others, used a small phillips bit (from cordless drill set) and a 6 or 7mm spanner to turn this, worked a treat.

chavfords sell bent screw drivers, philips on one end flat on the other, worked for mt

when holding the end of a interchangable end on the screw head turn it with a pair of pliers. Once it's turned slightly you'll be able to undo it with your fingers.
If you're mounting tweeters in there do what Dizzie did and destroy the sh!te it once had and gluegun the tweeter onto of the old speaker :D

Offset screwdriver, surely pretty obvious if you stop to think about it. Though, I must admit that 'pretty obvious' is sometimes not that obvioous when you are struggling for a solution.
