You need to notch the snap screws or use a cold chisel to get them loose then needle nose pliers will do the rest.

I used a small cut off wheel on my air grinder. I took off the plastic around the dash so i didnt cut it up. I ground a small notch then used a screw driver to back the srews out. Good thing is that once you get them to turn just a bit they come right out.


I never had a key issue on any festiva and then out of nowhere i had 2 different cars fail in the same week.
