hi chaps,
just a quick question, should go and look myself really, but here goes.
dipswitch went on my mk2 last week, so have another ordered, however it seems that the steering wheel has to come off to get to change it. what size is the nut? i am a bit short of larger sockets so may have to order one.
thanks

The original imperial size is 1-5/16", so 33mm is the nearest metric match.

For info the nut reference is ACH6001 available from any real Mini we shop.

I made a flogging spanner for the crankshaft nut and thats a perfect fit for the steering wheel nut.
