• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Are they all T40 screws for Seat Trim Removal?

I need to remove the seat trim on my 2021 900. I'm pretty sure all 6 screws involved are T40- if someone could please confirm I'd appreciate it. The left side forward-most screw (circled below) really has me stymied. The depth of it's recess combined with obstruction by the shock makes everything I have too short or too long. Can someone please point me to the right tool for the job? Thanks!

I havent removed the plastic trim around the seat, but this video might help. She removes the plastic trim at around the 1.40 mark in the video. She states T-15 screws.

The video doesn't actually show her removing the trim. You're right though, she does call them T15 screws. Thanks.
 
For future reference, thread size provides a clue

A T15 would be appropriate for a M4
A T40 would be appropriate for a M8

They are in fact all T15. One of these in conjunction with a 1/4" 1/4" drive socket can get the problem screw: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PGS48VD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
