    Well this is embarrassing to say the least. Trying to remove the stock side rails from my Tron. The nut in question I cannot seem to grip with any tool in my possession. Screw seems pretty deep in wood as well. Any tips on this really appreciated. Pic of said nut I cannot turn.

    Quoted from ZenTron:

    Whats on the opposite side, maybe you can turn the bolt?

    Head without anyway to turn on other side.

    I still can't get any of the tools I posses to grip. Going to try a few of the suggestions. Really frustrated one bolt ruins a armor swap out. But isn't always just one little thing to stop your plans.

    Quoted from j_m_:

    any update from the OP? were you able to successfully remove the side rail to put on your new armor?

    No I have not been able to remove side rail. I lack some of the tools needed for some tips and honestly a space to use a grinder. My garagecade is rather limited in the work with power tools I can do without having a major clean up.

    Been frustrated and was debating just selling the armor separate from the game. Both nuts are in deep and one in pic is inside the wood of cabinet with very little space around it to grip. I am scared to actually drill into inside or outside of screw because I don't want to damage this Tron LE cabinet.
