Help Needed...
« on: October 11, 2014, 05:15:19 pm »
I started to fit my boot mounted DAB aerial today and ran into a problem. I have taken as much trim off as I can, but I do not have a long reach Torx bit, to undo the B Pillar trim.  I was wondering if anybody near Northampton was available tomorrow with one of these? I will pay and supply tea/coffee.

Many thanks
Andrew

I have a little set like this seems to have every thing i need. Either used with small wrench or screwdriver.

The trouble I'm having is the torx bit I have connected to a screwdriver won't fit into the gap.  It needs to be like these

Get creative is say!!  Tape your torx to an Allen key? Usually those internal torx screws are kept quite loose.

I removed my pillar trim with fingertip strength
