Guest k6tc Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 I need to remove and repair the horn button on one side of my 1991 Cutlass International's heater/radio control unit in the center of the steering wheel. I believe they are metric but try as I might with a full set of both American and Metric nut drivers I just don't seem to have the right one? can anyone help me? k6tc 1991 Cutlass Supreme international coupe Quote
runt Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Possible Torex wrench? Maybe try that. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 If you're talking about the ones on the back of the steering wheel, they were 7mm on my 89. Quote

musthavemuzk Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 well i used one of the cheap sockets i had. no way was i doing that to one of my craftsman sockets. Monty Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 My Craftsman socket fit. It was tight, but it fit. The cheapie no-name socket I have was too fat to fit though. Quote
Guest k6tc Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 craftmans huh...cool I'll remember that Shawn thanks Quote
musthavemuzk Posted October 5, 2003 Report Posted October 5, 2003 hmmm guess i should have tried a dif socket. just figured they all were shaped the same. so i just ground the one in hand that did not fit. Monty Quote
