Says you need a 1/2 allen socket for the top bolt & a whammy extension?

Thanks,

What car?

123 240D and 300D aren't that tough. I think there's a 10mm allen involved.

I must have gotten lucky. I bought an Autozone starter for my 240D in 2010, kept it when I cannibalized that car for the transmission, and then put the starter in my 300D about a year and a half ago. So far, so good.
