Thanks for any info in advance! |
Have some penetrating oil on hand, as corrosion will make the bolts stick. Each tip had one bolt on the bottom, but I didn't need to jack the car up to access it, although it would have made it more comfortable. Honestly, the hardest part is getting the new tips aligned correctly. I need to readjust a tiny bit, but I may leave it unless other people mention something when they see it lol.
I believe I used a 12mm socket to remove the oem tips and 13mm for the Perrin, or it may have been 11mm and 12mm respectively?
The nut on the Perrin clamp was 1mm larger than the bolt on the oem tip.
