Wow.. you can actually get the security one with the hole in..?
When i went into my local hardware shop- only like a family business one that sells almost everything DIY like.. The guy said no one makes them and so i showed them the screw from the controller which i had managed to get out with a small screwdriver and he knew it was an xbox controller screw.. so he tells me off for taking it apart ect.. and that its called security for a reason.. You don't take it apart.. then he shows me how to take one out.. i was like wtf?
so all i do is pop the little dot off with a flat head and use a normal T8 to take apart..

If you can't find a t8 security and only have a t8 this is the way to go. Or you can use a flathead precision screwdriver that fits between the post and the side walls.
Not sure why m1 would say this would strip the screw :roll:

when removing the security tab unless you drill it out it will strip the head GUARANTEEDIrishStyle said:

what im saying is that if you use a flat head to remove the security tab there is a verry high chance of stripping the head. personally i would rather have the proper tool for the job.Jonny said:
