I got around that by turning the bolts by hand while pressing down on the bolt with a screwdriver with the other hand. It takes some patience, but it does work- I imagine it would be a snap if have a removable mobo plate.Lawrence Lee wrote:Yes. As long as there is room above the bolts for you to screw them in. The Scythe Ninja 2 for example has no place for you to insert a screw driver.

The kit is very well made. If the screws had hex heads as well as Phillips, they would be perfect.
Since I plan to use a Ninja2 as my next CPU cooler, I got two (one as spare) TR bolt-through kits from PerformancePCs (USA site, the kit is not available in my country).
But until today I couldn't find a 90-degrees angled screwdriver, just found this one which looks good, it's a Wolfcraft winkelschrauber:
