Cibie h1/h4 adjustment screws

Anyone know what kind of screwdriver to use? I can't really see in there, not sure if it's Philips or Robertson and don't want to strip the head.

TIA

Mine look like Phillips...

Robertson is a square shaped bit, not even close.

Mine don't look like Philips..could be though.

Curious because some Cibie's (for Jeeps) are T-15 torx.

If you've got time, I'd highly reccomend removing them completly, cleaning, and re-lubing.

They're brass and VERY easy to strip.

BTDT..

Very good idea to clean and lube, before you strip them.

I ended up cutting a small slot for a slot screwdriver, as the philips stripped. Even then, it's a close thing..
