How-dee...
Yep It's the mental midget who has an MGB...so I guess that makes me an MGB 
Midget, ehh? But why I've brought this here soap-box to stand on and say my 
piece is..."What the hey do you advise that I do to make gaining access to my 
battery box on my 1978 MGB not such a pain in the abs? Somebody (DPO?) 
somewhere must have had a real tough time twisting the lock pins loose 'cause 
the slotted heads are now mostly smoothed off from the screw driver slipping 
and scrapping off layer after layer of the head. So what I've done is tigged 
a wind knob sort of affair on to all 4 pins that are hinged to flop down when 
I'm not trying to get to the battery. Does that make any sense to anyone. If 
you'd like I could draw one or better yet take a photo of a couple of them 
(1) Open (2.) then closed..
