    Great work again on this man. Was able to do my backplate swap very easily following your tutorial and was able to put in custom one.

    stripped 2 screws and decided to rip the backplate off screws and everything and very well for me everything went according to plan :)

    Thanks! This worked so well. I had to pause the video when i was removing the side screws only to unpause and find out that you only need to remove only the middle screws! I already almost over screwed one of the screws.

      You can use something like a thick, flattened rubber band and put it on top of the screw, then very slowly and carefully unscrew it as you push your screw bit into the rubber band.
