Question GC controller screwdriver?

Does anyone know where I can get the screwdriver needed to open up my GC controller? Or any other method of getting it open? Thanks.

I tried a couple different size phillips and that didn't work. I tried a small flathead but it was a little too big. I'll try to find a smaller flathead. Thanks guys.

Damnit, I wonder why mine won't work. I'll have to try it again.

I used a triwing screwdriver to open the controller. The same u use to open up a GameBoy Advance. You can find it at liksang or aheadgames.

Cool, thanks a lot. I'll get one of those if I can't get any other philips or flatheads to work.

Well, I finally got it to work with a really tiny flathead. I tried every size phillips I had and none worked. Thanks again for your help everyone

Hey, check here too. I bought my 4.5 mm Gamebit to open my cube, 3.8 mm Gamebit that opens gb carts and other systems like the gamegear, and a triwing driver for about $15. I never thought I'd use the triwing, but they had all three for cheaper than I saw the 4.5mm gamebit at the time i bought it.
