No problem... I didn't think I really did a full DIY, it was actually pretty simple. I obviously omitted discussing the steps about lifting the console and putting a piece of cloth to protect the rest of the console from tooling marks and accidental scratches.

The robo pliers were 25 bucks for a set of two sizes (one big one small). I felt like it had a much better grip and easier to handle. The strap wrench is just an awesome piece of invention It was only 13 bucks for a set of 2 sizes. A must have for anyone I think.

That looks good too! What does the open O mean?
