we need photos. unless the screw is properly identified it could lead others to tamper with their machines in a dangerous and unnecessary manner. please do the responsible thing.

I want to try this too...
Can you let me know what tools you used for this repair? Will I need to look for the SnapOn man to accomplish this on my scooter?

You can pretty much remove anything with a screwdriver, and sufficient violence...especially if it's unintentional

Ohhhh... with violence. I get it.
I just assumed he had two big phillips head screws holding it on his face, like some sort of robot. |

Dayam, this is a project I cannot do. I just don't have any red screwdrivers. Heck, I don't even have red screws. How much would a dealer charge for this service? Hurry, I need it done urgently, it drives me nuts that it doesn't rattle!
