@romano Since you are backing the screws off a bit wouldn't a bit of threadlocker on each screw help hold everything securely with less risk of damage?

What does that solve? Isn't the whole purpose of a threadlocker to keep the screw in place? I can imagine that plastics are soft enough that they keep the screws in place on their own. As far as I know, and from my own experience, there's been no trouble with screws loosening over time in those consoles, so I don't know how adding threadlocker would help.
