Sunlit...
I surgically ground my 2 tabs off with a thin cutting disc on a dremmel. The divot where they "staked" it at the factory remained. Then when I got my screw plated and the frame blasted and painted, I reinstalled the screw and took it to work with me and restaked it in the same spots. You can't tell it if you don't have a magnifying glass.
How'd you restake it? Just a spot weld?
