Butterfingers...

Post by offshorematt » Thu Apr 05, 2007 9:28 am

Doh!

I managed to drop the allan key for locking my roof down into the engine bay this morning (due to a mixture of sleepiness and trying to eat a slice of toast while taking the roof off :roll: )

Can someone tell me what size it is? I need to replace it this lunch time before it starts raining again and I can't put the roof back on :(

Cheers

You can put the roof on and off without using a allen key thou.
:wink:

With the rain clouds coming in, that looks like the best plan to be fair.

Buying single allen keys is normally harder

so buy a cheapo set and enjoy the rattle as the other one wanders around your under tray

If you're near Dyce, I can easily sort you out with a single. Just PM me if you need.
