Oh no, help me..... please!





i have an alpine MRD-M300 amp and to anyone that is familiar with this amp ull know that u cover part of the amp up by screwing down a flap with some hexaganol screws, with the aid of an alum key (or however u spell it), the thing is i have a bit of a problem as the screw has become rounded inside and the the key is off no use, so i cannot take out the screw which i need to do to get my amp out.

what i really need is someone who can tell me how i can take out the screw now? any help will be grately appreciated

Thanks

drill mate sorry but thats all you can do

or use a saw to create a slot for a conventional screwdriver

or force a bigger hex key in

Get a very big hammer and a feckin big chisel...

nah, i hate it wen that happens! whoever invented them screws are fools! start drillin with a very fine drill bit
 


cheres for the response, think ill try tappin in a bigger key first, i dont wanna be pullin out the drill, last time i done that was to run the power cable from my battery when i couldnt find a hole! lol, fortunately my mate found a hole JUST in time! hahaha, ill see what i can do first then with a bigger key, maybe ill superglue a key in there!?!?!?!?! who knows, ill give anything a bash

keep ur ideas coming thou please if u have one

P.S i have sent an e-mail to alpine, perhaps they will send me a new amp! lol haha or even offer to wire my hole car up who knows!? :devilish:
 


alpine replied telling me just to tap a small flat headed screw driver into the screw, i said i would on his head thou if anything broke, lol, it didnt and it worked a treat, nice people at alpine are even sending me some new screws, lol
