LOL you are sooo right. i had a nightmare doing mine and as i had to use my mates drive to do it on the engine was still red hot and i burnt myslf loads LOL.

a rachet spanner is the best tool for it.

did you have to lay under the car and sumhow sqeez your hand up through the smallest space to get the bottom bolt?

its fairly easy to do with the turbo off the car

Yeah the rachet spanner is the only way i layed under the car for the bottom bolt but managed to do the other two from the top.
PNuT its lucky i had a spare turbo because it was my luk and lost one of the bolts

I hate it when Sh*t like that happens.

It hapened to me when i was replacing the Tracs pump and ecu, the sort of " cap " thingy that sits on top of the ecu dropped down into the engine bay " Somewhere " i had a right old time trying to find another one, the ecu was held on at the top by fishing gut for about 3 weeks, lol.

Glad to hear you got it sorted pete.

My Mrs has been infomed that i want a set of those ratchet spanners for crimbo, they are a god send!
