I find a pointed probe, such as the ones that come with continuity testers (buzz boxes) are QUITE effective and less likely to snap the box. This method is also effective for replacing the 6-finger hub black inserts with 12-finger hub inserts. I found that the 6-finger hub on my CATS album wouldn't hold on to the disk! The only difference in the double sections are the double middle hinge instead of the tray. By canabalizing parts from replacement cases the hub sections and top covers can be replaced on double sets ( I broke the lid on my Star Wars double set. A testimony to CD's. Although the drop to the asphalt road cracked the case and sprung the CD on to the road, the minute scratches were few and inaudible. Imagine the effect on an LP!)
