Hi guys, after attempting the airbox mod last weekend on my new car, but having to give up as my cheapo tool kit only went up to torx size 20 (25 required) I have just finished doing it.
Being a ham-fisted oaf, I managed to drop 2 out of the 5 torx screws into the engine bay , where they were promptly caught by the metal tray in the bottom. So after a spot of lurching forwards and backwards then jamming on the brakes in an attempt to dislodge them it seems they are there to stay. . Balls.
So my question is, are they vital? I presume they are, so if anyone can tell me what size/spec they are so I can replace them I would be more than grateful. In the meantime I have left the two hard to get at screws in place, along with the one on the left hand side, leaving two missing, top left and middle right, as shown in pic. Should I re-arrange them for now, or is this ok as a temporary measure?
Thanks for your help.
