Check your email>>

One thing I forgot to mention is that I made my own too,what I did was saw of the tip of a phillips head screw driver so the was about a half inch of metal and the tip,then I got out a vise grip and clamped down on it so I had a costum L shaped screw driver,also try twisting and turning the ECU to gain more acess to the screws.Good Luck!

wasted a perfectly good screwdriver!!!
go to your local hardware store and get a phillips screwdriver BIT. it cost like $.50 and clamp that bad boy on the vise grip. no cutting what so ever and u would still have a perfectly fine screwdriver still..remind me not to let u touch my stuff!
