look in the steering wheel replacement threads I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

OK - just checked some old photos of when I replaced my steering wheel:
In the close up, you can clearly see the writing on the 42mm 16mm socket that I used
OK - maybe I was thinking about the oil filter housing with the 42mm spanner/socket. 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

If you're going to say something dumb like I did, then it's just better to post a picture showing how dumb you really are - it saves people speculating 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG
