I sat down to do exactly that. And ran into a couple fasteners that I didn't
have drivers for. Seems the manufacture didn't want consumers getting into

Working on getting those drivers now. If I can't find them in a couple of
days, out comes Mr. Dremel and that fastener becomes a normal panhead screw...
