How do these come out? I'm currently trying to replace mine and I can't find any info in Haynes about it :confused:

Never mind - just prised one out with a big screwdriver.

Bring back the "delete post" button lol

Another question. How the hell do you get the new ones in?

If you pulled the old one out i assume you can just tap the new one in?
Big socket?

In theory, it's refusing to go in straight though, managed to destroy a new one :(

You need to use a big socket bud and tap it in gently with a hammer, maybe even try and use some grease to ease it in:thumb:

Do I want the socket sitting on the metal edge or the rubber inner part?

The metal edge mate as you dont want to destoy the rubber thats the actual seal, take it easy though and it should slot in nicely . . . Good luck:thumb:
