Hey,
I just got my GBA SP housing replacement along with the tri-wing screwdriver which is garbage it just strips the screws. Can I just replace the tri-wing screws with the same size same length phillips screws? It would make changing the case a whole lot easier. Where would be a good place to get this (home depot?) I'm just looking for the bottom of the housing screws four and two smaller screws. Thank you!
