What is "special" about it? A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.

Buy a multi screwdriver bit set, the type that has loads of different bits with it
There is bound to be a special one in there.

Hi John ,
I will check with jason what size it was and have a look on my tool box tonight then stick it in the post if you want to borrow it to fit the tubes.
Cheers

Is it May Fools Day?
This is a wind up surely?
A complete set of Allen key is less than £10 but someone is going post one all the way from Yorkshire to Sussex and then back again to fit a set of side tubes?

I seem to remember the allen key has a centre hole to allow it to fit the head of the security allen screw.

Exactly that. It's a security fixing with a peg in the centre.
I just beat the peg out with a hammer and punch then used a normal Allen key. It's probably a declarable insurance modification to not have the peg though I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I'll have a go at knocking the peg out and buy a few bigger torx bits, I've been told it's probably a t50 I need
