Now to remove the bit that is actually needed: Remove the following 2 of 4

You will notice the 4 x 10mm larger ones, these can be bought from Halfords, they are £10 for two :( . Then there are the two smaller ones, 3mm wedge, I bought these off a guy on ebay the other day, a lot cheaper.
Well I hope this helps.
Matt.
