does anyone have one themselves? Would there be slot of danger in cutting it off? Sounds crazy but I'm running out of options here, unless I'm missing something blatently obvious!LOL

They may not be screws mate, they may be grubs that are put on with an allen key, need to try and get a look in the hole or go through an allen key set and see if something fits. They are normally grubs though so you may be lucky
