Just patience and small movements with the spanner. You'll get there but, yes they are a bit of a PITA. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

It is a lot easier to get them off if the front of the car isn't in place, but it's a bit overkill if you remove the front end just for that purpose. You'll do it, it may help if you manage to obtain a shorter 16mm spanner than standard then you will have more room to move it once located on the bolts. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
