Just picked up my 2010 328i. Looking to put the LEDs I got from LUX for the angel eyes in and also my fogs and low beams and DRL. If anyone in the Phoenix area would help out that'll be great. Lunch is on me.

Borrow strut nut socket 22mm
Hey guys, I'd like to borrow the 22mm strut nut socket. Schwaben makes it.
I'm in the middle of installing ST coilover and I need this tool. I'm in East Valley. ![]() |

I made my own socket when I replaced the shocks/struts in my car, but it's a 13/16. If you think it will work, you are more than welcome to borrow it. If it won't work, you can at least see how I made it and you might be able to make your own?

I can buy a tall socket and cut it in the middle but it might not be an easy work. 13/16 is like 20.6mm which won't work. |

That's exactly what I did...it was not difficult at all. You'll just need a small small grinder and a good vice to mount the socket in while you're cutting away.

High speed grinder makes me nervous from the vibrations it makes. I have a vice that can be mounted on the bench. My car is up in the jackstands for days now doing this work ![]() Autozone, O'Really, Lowes, Ace hardware, etc don't have it. Probably none in entire Az. Thin wall tall socket might do. |

I have a Makita die-grinder...about 1 foot long and straight...this is the high speed grinder I was saying. I'm also thinking of different approach... First drill with small bit. Then gradually use bigger drill bits till grinder bit can fit into the hole. Then spread from there to grind them out to desired width and height. |
