Cool

Yeah, I saw a video online where the guy had one of those sockets. I remember similar sockets for regular cars being sold back in the day, and think that I've had one or two over the years.

I'm going to have to see about space under the car (barely any normally) and getting the car up high enough to do this activity.


It is easy with the car a couple of feet off the ground for an old fat man. I still have to lay on my back to get the numerous torx head screws out. And the few large plastic button clips come out easy with a trim removal tool.

When putting the cover back in place just use the easy to push in plastic clips to hold the tray mostly in place, and then put in the torx head screws.
