as already stated, i think the key is to make sure you've got the right torx head. i've know several that thought it was a t-25 ( &it will feel like it fits) but it;s really a t-27. I also use a impact driver if one feels like it's not breaking loose. just don't over tighten(as already said, they're not under that mush pressure). I'd never use a thread locker on them. jmo
