[ROVERNET - UK] P6B Rover tools . again

[LANCE G LACERTE, LANCE G LA CERTE]

If you've got a grinder in the garage you'll be in business.  I encountered 
the same problem so I took my standard socket plug spanner and ground down 
the walls until it slipped easily into the socket wells.

Hope that helps.

Lance La Certe,  '70  P6B
