Default Gearbox plug removal tool

Just a quick one for anyone interested, I like to try and make my own tools where possible and this is my latest. Thought it might be handy for other like minded folk. Anyway, take an old vag wheel bolt, cut off the threaded part then file the rounded part down to the same 17mm size as the rest of the bolt. It makes an excellent drain and refill plug removal tool, it's also nice and strong being a wheel bolt.

It's not the best looking but it did only take 5 minutes with the 4.5in grinder.
