Ok, this blows. I've been through two seat screws this year. They have both rattled loose from the seat and rattled through the lock waser somehow.

Anyone got any "Improvements" for the M2 seat screws?

Is yours a regular round-head screw? I don't remember my M2...but my S1W has what appears to be an oversize wingnut-head on the screw. The two wings make it super-easy to tighten it to the point it won't come loose.

Yup..its a wingnut, and I tightened it..30 min later, my seat almost slid out from under me.
