10mm wrench question
Just a quick question. For some reason, my father kept a 10 mm box end wrench in the drivers door pocket. Would there be a reason for that .
( I know for him, there was ALWAYS a logical reason, he just never told me)

If it were a 3mm allen or 13mm box I would make an educated guess. A 10mm box...dunno?

Did he like taking the seats in & out? Coil, heater blower ducts, rear fuse panel cover, floorboards?

If you recently got the car from him, I am sure you will find out soon enough. Hopefully it won't be raining at the time.

I changed my battery recently and I think I needed a 10mm box to disconnect the cables.

If I had to guess, excluding the engine, the 10mm bolt would dominate the bolt size for the trunk, door, interior, etc. What do ya think?

90% of the car is 10mm! Clutch cable adjustment bolt and lock bolt? Or was that an 11mm?
