Just used the impact gun to buzz them off then nip them back up on lowest setting then torque with the wrench. Car is only 5 days old so no rust ;)

Yeah that tierod was a b'stard. It snapped one of my impact torx bits!!!!!!!!!!!!! but once it was cracked it was fine. And the rest just buzzed off in seconds. Took me longer to jack it up and get the wheels off than it did to swap the struts!.

Dark outside by the time I finished, will get one at work tomorrow :)

200 and KW V1's.

Old thread I know, but I got to pick my plate from a big sheet and that was only a few weeks ago.

I wasn't keen on these at first...but my 200 has got a black roof from factory and after seeing it in person it looks the nuts. After seeing it in person, the 200 really needs it to break up the front. :) Looks spot on.

Last set of 18's I got PC cost me £150. Find a local firm...cash in hand always goes down well ;)
