Question

Was giving my UK300 the Wax Wizard treatment the other day........
thought I would take off number plates and wax behind them (sad I know).
Started to undo on of the screws on the front and it only moved a little then stuck. It now won't go back in or come out, why?

The head just twists, don't want to force it as I think the head will snap off. Also can't get to the back of the screw.

Is this just unlucky of does this happen to stop number plates being nicked?

Also how can I get it back in?

Cheers

Exclamation

Get yourself a pair of mole grips, clamp it on and pull outwards while unscrewing.

I'd suggest getting a new screw to put back in.

Hope this helps
