    I have a problem with these new ps2's. I have recently gotten Swap Magic 3.6 as well as the Flip Top cover thingy. But in the instructions it tells you to unscrew 6 screws at the bottom of the ps2, but seems that the smarta**es at Sony has put som sort of plastic over them and slapped on a "Warranty Void if Removed" on top of one. What should I do!!!

    But under that is this plastic cover protecting the screws. In other words: the screws are inaccesible!!!

    What Version PS2 is it?

    Some PS2's where the screws are have plastic TABS covering the screws... Use a screw driver or butter knife and pop off the tabs to ge to the screws....

    Yeah, they're just tabs, get a flat head screwdriver and gently lever the tabs upwards.
