Default quick clear corner mod Q

So I'm probably doing this tomorrow if I get my clear/amber blinking lights in, and I jsut wanted to make sure of some things. Is it ok if I sue a blow dryer instead of a heat gun? And about how long fo a torx tool do I need? and i heard I'll also need a magnetic pointer tool?

Default I don't think a hair dryer will put out enough heat...

I used a Home Depot heat gun - approx. $25
I used a Torx 1/4" socket on a 12" extension
A pen-sized magnet extention (Craftsman) is very helpful for retreiving the third bolt. It is also very helpful for replacing the third bolt.

Good luck
