well i bought some used Kyb AGXs from someone and 1 of the top adjust things are stripped. its plastic on top and i guess he tried to put a bigger screw driver and fukced it up. my question is, does anyone know if this can be repaired or anything? its stuck on number 4(stiffest) and sorta wanna just leave it at like 2 or 3. if anyone has any input let me know.

warrenty is gone since they have coilover sleeves on em so thats out.

Turn all other knobs to 4. Done!

its pretty soft plastic, try getting a scalpel and just shoving it into where the flathead usually goes and turn.

u could try heating it and sticking a screwdriver in it onc eit gets hot, so that it will melt around the screwdriver and make a new groove, but without pics im just going off a guess, cuz ive never seen the KGY adjust knob.
