another boring ultimate tbi question

alright, ive looked everywhere, and ive seen the tech article on making your fpr adjustable. I got everything off,but what the hell is the cap that i am supposed to drill out? Is it that little metal piece that is inside the hole? or is it that 1/4" cylindrical tube that sticks out of the bottom of the cup? it is bothering the s*** out of me.
Thanks to whoever responds

When you get the spring off, turn the thingy upside down and inside that little tunnel thing there will be a piece of brass (I think its brass) that has a wavy bottom, drill that out. I had the same question man, I tried to get a pic when I did it, but it didnt turn out too good.

Ya the brass looking part, one side should have the end of a screw, the other side should have a tunnel looking thing with a peice of brass smashed into it. Drill the brass out, and make sure you dont start drilling into the screw, when the sheddings start changing color from brass to silver your hitting the screw. Hope that helps.

Thanks, for your guys help.
I did drill a lil bit into the screw, but not enough to do anything real bad. I jus grinded down the head to even it out and then put in the slot for screwing. I figure just as long as it wasnt drilled futher down than that platform looking thing, i'm fine
