If you don't have the right timing tools you will never get it right. There is a DVD purchaseable from the OOF shop that details how to do it .. :)

Get the DVD mate - its well worth the money ;) ;)

Agreed you need the correct locking kit - either beg, buy (ebay ~£50) or steal (no not really)

Its not difficult as long as you take your time and follow the instructions carefully.

Good luck ;)
