Take Back Control of Your iPhone with Free DIY Repair Kits (Save $20)

Take Back Control of Your iPhone with Free DIY Repair Kits (Save $20)

iPhones annoyingly are put together with special Apple-devised pentalobe screws instead of standard Phillips screws. If you'd like the ability to open your iPhone instead of sending it to Apple for repairs, get these free iPhone liberation kits from iFixit.

The DIY repair site is offering two free kits to everyone through July 5th. The iPhone 4/4S and iPhone 5 kits include a pentalobe driver, Phillips driver, and Phillips screws so you can replace the pentalobe screws with Phillips ones and "liberate your iPhone."

Unfortunately, they've already given away the 1,776 of each set aside for free shipping. But you can still order the two free kits (one for you and one for a friend) and pay for the shipping, which looks to be about $5 for ground shipping. Not bad considering the kits usually cost around $20.
