i used a grinder on my old 400,after i cut them i sanded them down with sand paper,and after i was done with that i used a lighter and went by the edges to bring uot the shinyness again,but most people eith use dremels or grinders either one works it all comes down to what your most comfortable using

most use dremel, but i liek to use jigsaw, b/c i can hold it steady and cut straighter lines, and then after the cuts, just get sand paper, and cust it round, and then go over it with a lighter till the edge melts over, and no one will ever tell that u cut them but looking it it

haha this just happened to me also......i got lucky though i used a flat head screw driver and tapped it in with a hammer. Worked great and quick.

on my 400 i just used a hack saw just draw an outline and follow it steady then if you get off a little sand it down real good. i like the hack saw becuase you have good controll with just your hands but it worked goof for me.

i used a carpenters knife and cut deep enough to where i could just fold the plastic and snap off that piece. and then sanded the places where i cut.

Used a dremel on my buddy's 400ex. Came out looking real nice after some sanding.
