   Put all this in just one thread! lol
   Will be pretty easy to get out with the right bits and wd40, and aslong as you do shear the insides off then they will be fine

   When tightening them up don't over tighten them, they snap easily.

    True, some cars dont have screws holding them on, they just use the wheel bolts to hold them on, but if they've got screws to hold them on you might aswell use them.
