I Have Sausage Fingers
So, I was changing the quick release buckle on my 01367 and managed to get the pin on the wrong side of the buckle body. Consequently, I now cannot press the pin in the direction it needs to be pressed and cannot press the buckle body in the direction it needs to be pressed (opposite to the pin) in order to release the axis. Anybody have a fix for this.

Okay, I got it. What I did was, I pressed the buckle body in the direction it's supposed to go to release the buckle (of course, the pin went with it) and while I was pressing the buckle body, I took a small screwdriver and very gently turned the axis where it inserts into the buckle body and this caused the axis to pop free. I don't know if there's another way to do it, but this worked for me.

Remove the screw in the buckle.
