Hi guys, gotten into a slight pickle here. Bought a carbon frame off eBay from a seller assuring me that the port screws on the cable routing housing were merely 'rusty'. Well after cleaning them up with some WD40, I've realised they're not only rust as hell, they're also rounded. Completely. I managed to get 1/4 off, and interestingly, it screws into a steel casing/housing - this leads me to think that drilling them out might be an option? But you need a 2mm hex to get them out, which makes me worried that there won't be left handed drill piece small enough to fit. Anyone had this problem happen to them? If so, what did you do? Any shops in London that could drill this out?
