You will lose the socket but they are not too expensive to replace. -------------------- '92 LX T5 Looked stock, went 11's 11.90 at 115mph.

The car was broken down in a parking lot and we had to move it so I put a bar under the starter, let the car down a few inches and broke the starter off. I had plenty of room to get the vice grips in then! -------------------- Three 540 Bimmers and a 5.0 Explorer.... got a Ford back in the stable!
