Would these be of any use in our cars, or are they too short?

Should work fine on our cars I think, admittedly that's not the greatest angle of photograph to tell from s:) :) s:) But looks fairly standard..
Top tip if your crows foot socket (i.e. one of those) 'opens up' when applying torque to undo a stubborn O2 sensor - put a jubilee clip around it once you've fed the O2 sensor wires into it and tighten it up..
Thanks for the help Aaron. s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
How would you turn that socket? With a 1/2" breaker bar?
i'm sure i've seen them cheaper than that once you've taken the postage into account
I paid about that for a Draper "proper" one from one of the tool shops on the web.
However I am sure you might find them excl postage in local shops.

Or a big wrench and extension.. just use it like you would any socket..
It just looked wierd with the hole being offset. I suppose it gives more leverage though

more like a crow's foot

They are a little odd to use, since you're not applying the torque directly.. You can get really long ones that go over the whole body and work like a normal socket, but I've only seen one - and it was worryingly cheap..

Which is why they're called 'crows foot sockets' s;) ;) s;) s:D :D s:D
