That's cheap enough :D - almost makes we want to get one, to put with my other "good ideas at the time" :lol: :lol:

If it turns out that the key isn't lurking in the bongo somewhere.. Often your oldest, most worn socket can be hammered onto the locker nut, and it be freed that way, you will of course need a new set of lockers, and be prepared to lose out on 4 old sockets. #-o

Failing that... Mike at wheelquick will sort it out for you easy enough... :wink:

Bongo had a service today and the garage managed to cut an allen key so that it fits - now that is service and problem solved. The only thing they couldn't do was repair a small leaking fuel pump. He recommended a chap in Stockport to do the job. Both are mentioned actually in the Members Top Tips so I am not sure if I am allowed to mention their names. Thanks for all the advice.

Always mention when you get good bongo service - don't be shy :D Glad you got sorted with the wheels.
