Easy-access laydown servo

My OFNA X1-CR’s laydown steering servo helps lower its CG, but the position also makes it difficult to access the servo horn’s mounting screw because of interference from the chassis? mudguard (this is a problem for most other buggies with laydown steering servos as well). To improve access, I drilled a 1/4-inch-diameter hole in the right mudguard so I can pass the tip of my screwdriver through the mudguard to reach the servo-horn mounting screw.
