Default Xbox 360 controller repair tool?

Hey CP

Would anyone on here know where to get the proper tool to remove the screws from my 360 controller? I have some buttons I really have to hammer on and then they sometimes stick down. It looks really small and like a torx but i'm not sure.

Thanks in Advance.

They're probably security torx, with the hole in the end. Should be able to pick it up anywhere that sells screwdrivers.

Well I can't say for sure they would have it. I'd bet the chances are fairly good that they do though.

Take one of those cheap plastic pens that are clear and take out the ink tube. Then using a lighter heat up the narrow end of the pen till it's soft. Then jab it into the hole in the controller and wait for it to cool.

Haven't actually tried this yet....
