Anyone know a good way to take out the caps on the quest? Not lateral caps but the regular caps that come on it. I didn’t know the quests caps were metal and assume they were plastic like every other yoyojam and tried to take them out the old fashioned way with a knife since I don’t like caps but yea metal plus knife didn’t work much haha. ---

Try the suction cup method. I never had a quest, but that always worked great with the plastic ones ---

The only way I know anyone has gotten them out has been by using a knife and puncturing the cap. It’s aluminum so a safety pin might not work. ---
