[QUOTE="robwbright, post: 1035679, member: 60515"] Apparently aluminum and steel (or whatever the screws are made of) tends to bind up. If you can't/don't find allen heads to replace them with, buy some anti-seize or graphite . . . I started using it pretty much everywhere and I don't have those problems anymore - even when using the standard screws. If there's a little bit of the phillips "x" left, you can always try what dad and I did on my bike - Get a very sharp edged screwdriver or chisel and a hammer. Get the chisel started into the screw head (down into it) and then try to punch it counterclockwise in the "loose" direction. I you don't go crazy with the hammer and chisel, you won't hurt anything (except the screw) and you just might get it out - we did. You've got nothing to lose but some time. . . [/QUOTE]
