Penny T6 Screw Replacement

[CyclopsFan92]

Is it possible to replace the T6 screws in a Penny? I replaced my lenses earlier today and I believe the screw on the right lens is slightly stripped, or starting to strip. It's secure now, but should I ever need to remove the lens for any reason, will I be able to replace this part?

EDIT: More specifically, IF the screw is stripped and will not unscrew, how would I get it out?

Yeah definitely could. PM @zwc0442 he might have some replacement. I suggest you replace those before you strip them

If you can’t unscrew it due to the head being stripped, try a little piece of fabric in the head. It might help fill in the slack and let you unscrew it. A better screwdriver, or at least a better fitting one, might help as well. Last resort would be to drill it out, but if you don’t have experience doing that, sending it to a veteran customizer will be your best bet.

There are people that can repair those stripped screws.

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I did some more research on my own (admittedly, I made the original post right after my discovery and I was a little panicked), and I managed to find a user here with an eBay page. I believe his name is something like "oxm.parts" or something similar? Judging by the posts from other threads, he seems like a well-respected and legitimate member of the Oakley community, but I just wanted to be sure before I ordered replacement parts from him.

I did manage to get the damaged screw out, by the way. I went ahead and removed it while I was sure I was still able to.

Yep and he's here on the forum. His name is @scienergy

How’d you get it out?

Sorry about the VERY late reply! Haven't logged in in a while. I never put the screw all the way back in after I realized it wasn't acting right, so I was able to very carefully and slowly rotate it back out. I've since gotten the replacement screw and my Penny is as good as new!
