NO, do not listen above, they are exactly the same

the only difference ever in fks was a 3 hole geze toe on much older models...120's, 155's, and 185's all have the same pattern

You dont have to take anything apart to beable to remove the heel or the toe piece.  Just as long as you can turn a screw driver (dont use a too small philips head though).  Before putting the toe and heel back on, put a little dab of glue in each hole.

you need a #3 posidrive screwdriver...others will work but posidrive is better than ideal

put wood glue in your old holes and place the screws on. turn the head of each screw 1-2 turns until it engages and then work them down together while applying serious pressure on the top of the screwdriver

it's much easier if the holes have already been screwed into, just make sure they're not stripped. if you have a stripped hole where the screw just keeps spinning, back it out and cure the epoxy with shavings of steel wool and you should be set
