I've searched but can't find the exact socket i need to remove the cylinder head bolts.

From searching i think its a male "double hex" type, i think i have the right type and size but its not slim enough to pass down through the head to get to the bolt head..........

can anyone tell me 100% what size i need?

cheers

10mm double hex.

Halfords sell one that fits through the gap alright

didn't have time to pop and have a look....

might get these as i think it looks like it has a 10mm one but the blurb says otherwise (suspect a typo?) (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DRAPER-1-2-SQUARE-DRIVE-5-PIECE-XZN-BIT-SET_W0QQitemZ150040998021QQihZ005QQcategoryZ30917QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem)
