[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 476631, member: 19781"] When things first start looking like that you should probably just stop immediately.. In retrospect the screw method on that seal might have been a bad idea after it was that chewed up... it doesn't have the structural integrity it needs for the screw to push against... Do what Pappy suggests..... take a small flat screwdriver and drive the edge of the seal inward... it's just a thin piece of sheet metal and should fold fairly easily. Drive it inward till you can grab it with a sidecutter or a needle nose and just twist it out of there... whatever damage was done should not be serious... It can be fixed... [/QUOTE]
