Just as general info, if you're trying to remove any nut, bolt, etc., that is fastened with Loctite red, the best way to break it is by applying heat. I removed my gear shift knob which I had (stupidly) fastened with Loctite instead of the locknut. A MAP torch got it more than hot enough without messing up any other plastic parts and it unscrewed easily. The knob looks pretty cool after my proprietary "heat treatment", too.
