How many remote bezels have you seen scratched up because someone used needle nose pliers to try and remove it? I used a cheap PVC fitting to make a tool that will effectively remove/replace the nut without damaging the bezel or the nut. I used the nut to mark where the tabs needed to go and used my dremel to shave the plastic down. Edited by AMX09652 - Sep/02/2017 at 7:22pm |
