anyone here done so ? my 2 year old son snapped mine off (last time i try to educate the liitle one!!), bought a replacement . Puzzled so far on installation, as it doesnt just twist out .and little apparent info on the net via google searches... found a site http://funkymusic.tripod.com/turn.html that suggests there is a little screw underneath....but how the hell do you get underneath to unscrew as its such a little space ? any insights suggestions gratefully recieved !!

you need one of those crazy 90-degree angle screwdrivers. often made for jewelers.

don't have to spend a lot, but you might try for the ratcheting kind, it's a bit easier than the standard.
