Hmmm and what if you destroy the edges of the bolt while trying to remove
with the incorrect tool?????
AND I would hate to damage the cylinder head while trying to remove a
damaged bolt. Gee I wonder how long it will take to get the damaged bolt
out and to repair the damaged head. YEAH I am trying to scare you!
Best to wait and get the right one. You can get the correct tool in a few
days or sooner if you pay extra.
You will need it anyway!

Buy from http://www.metalnerd.com
Part number MN18T160 $20 and probably $5-6 priority mail.
Ask them if they can rush it to you but priority mail is pretty quick for
me.
Nice family operation that responded quickly to my emails and I had one of
their tools in 2-3 business days.
Tell them that vwdoc1 referred you! lol

later,
dave
