   Takes me about 5 mins ... 3 to find the phillips screwdriver, and 2 to 
   change the tops.  Be careful of the two screws in the top middle of the 
   side plates.  They screw into the heat sink and it is easily stripped.

It's very easy to actually drill and tap the heat sink from the side,
then use a 1/2" length 4-40 screw at that location.

As shipped, you're using a short #5 screw into the slot in the heatsink, and
it strips very easily.
