Default mk 4 fiesta steering arm

hi all.

ive got to change the steering arm on my sisters mk4 fiesta (1.25 with PAS) Ive removed the track rod end, and steering gaiter. Butttt...and its a big but!!.. the new steering arm has a hex on the end that screws into the rack to undo/tighten it. the old one is completly round...

Any tricks or ideas??

Thanks,

Matt

You beat me to it, nicknamed "drumsticks" for obvious reasons, don't forget a tracking check/adjust.
