That sucks Don, I have been havin a few beers, and gettin ready for F1 race in the morning.

Speed Channel blacks it out, how nice! Other than that, I have been trying to remove a screw from the bottom of my

TC4 chassis, got some parts in the mail for a replacement of the Motor mount and heat sink. I have destroyed five (yes five) 5, 1.5mm wrenches so far trying to remove a few screws.

Serious, 4-5 allen keys, and one expensive hex wrench. Any help here>?

That might be the answer. These screws are the original from factory install, What a pain.

I am trying to replace the original motor mount, with an anodized alum Blue mount/ heat sink. Same goes for the top mount.

No reason to do it, other than I can, and It will look better, I guess.

Why should it be so hard to replace an original screw on a chassis? I can't even undo it... What a load!!
