Well it took me about an hour, that top bolt was a pig to get off, but it's nice to have done it oneself - annoyed though I found out one of my wheel nuts has been rounded-off (wanted to take off wheel to improve visibility and clearance) - must have been done when I had a new set of Yokohama's on recently - guess I'll have to drill the stud out etc. doh

It's well badly rounded, I was thinking of trying to hammer on a smaller socket, but first I guess I need a new wheel nut LoL - though maybe it's just time I bought a set of locking nuts as the car don't have any at the moment.
