What torx bit do you need to remove the factory screws? And I stripped one already, any way to order a replacement?

I don't remember exactly what size it was. I do remember I had to tap it in w/ a hammer(it was a little snug) to get a good grip on it from the dirt and paint. For a replacement I would recommend home depot or your local hardware store.

broke my bits too. i grinded the heads off the screws then welded the hinge to the truck. I guess u could try to get the screw out with a tap

On a 1990 f150 it took a T50 torx. Had to remove tail lights and hit the bracket on the back with a torch to expand it a little to allow the bolts to turn. Worked way better than spraying it down with oil for a couple of days. Not sure if that would have worked on mine anyway as factory paint coated the end of the bolts and brackets.

I want to say it's around t20/t25, but it's a standard size if you have a set. I know this is late, but PCBlaster for a couple days, then patience. I thought I would have to change torx bolts, but didn't.. good luck

First, I need one too, as the pivot screw fell out and got lost from just a moderate level of use! Second, I was able to find what looks like the right replacement screws, but I haven't had a chance to purchase and install it. Here's the link I found - http://usaknifemaker.com/folding-knife-parts-c-30.html

Are you thinking of trying to purchase the hardware from the manufacture? Yes. It's worth a shot to try. If not I'm sure u could go to the store and buy some that r the right size. Let me know what u want to do and I can send u a pic of the screw /size just need an email or text it to ya.

Just the proper size "Torx" tool is all you need to disassemble the old units and mount the new ones. It helps the operation if someone holds the lid while doing the work! Good luck! P.S. With the new StrongArms mounted, my lid goes up by itself!! Very good items. V. Tora

The screw is a pentalobe, trademark of apple, the other screwdriver that came with is a tri-screwdriver. Which is supposed to work. It did not for me, I have a set of torx screwdrivers which I used, T-6 I believe. A torx set can be found at a local hardware store.

hello not really sure as I do use Torx and found the included bits useful as is, perhaps the seller or manufacture would know, BTW I often use these in tight spaces and on small objects like disc drive cases sorry could not directly answer your question, hope this information help, cheers

Torx screws are used. I don't know what size. I was able to swap the clip to the other side by using a straight bit screwdriver that fit in the torx opening point to point.

The tip from the factory is on extremely tight. Be patient, I found using a 6-pt wrench rather then the tool sent with it, to remove the tip worked. Good luck

I haven't looked for other bits yet, but I would think someplace like Home Depot or Lowes would carry them. I have a set of longer bits that came in a gunsmithing screwdriver set made by Wheeler Engineering, I believe I got it from Midwayusa for $20 when it was on sale-they work just fine. Good luck!

If we are talking about the CN15, there is no need for torx screws as any small sized phillips head screwdriver will do for getting the bottom panel off. At least on my CN15-A5. Of course I got the notebook used so it's possible somebody swapped out the panel screws. For the fan noise, I have set a personal power options profile using balanced with only 90% CPU power from the advanced options and that has kept the noise at a minimum for mundane tasks such as internet and other basic tasks.

The kit has every screw driver bit including torx, allen, slotted torx and more plus mini torx and screw driver bits. Don't have an answer about your warranty status. Call manufacturer on that.

3 MM allen & T15 torx work best, but a 7/64" allen will do in a pinch. that said, i doubt you'll ever need to adjust it more than once or twice through the years

I assume you are referring to the tension lock thumbscrew. It appears to be an 11/64 fine "machine screw" thread although may be metric. Try the specialty hardware drawers at Lowes, Home Depot or a full service hardware store. A suitable replacement should be easy enough to find and it only needs to be "finger tight". Also, in future it doesn't need to be very loose to allow the mount to slide off so shouldn't need to un-thread it completely.

there are other screws that you can use. I've seen torx head screws, but the important thing is that they have a flat bottom. Woodcraft and Rockler may have what your looking for.

bring it to only hardware store, if you have the screws you can match the proper ones, if you don't just see which ones screw into the threaded holes. anyone at any hardware store had been more than helpful to help me find what I'm looking for. so don't be afraid to ask for some help.
