so, someone other than myself, broke the tip off a allen wrench in one of the screws on my steering wheel (momo) ...
now, i'm tool challenged (no garage), but i have used a tool to remove screws like that before, just can't remember what it is called. it's kinda like a reverse thread drill thing ... anyone know what i'm talking about? where would i get one and what's it called ???

Why don't you take all of the other screws out first and then rotate the steering wheel downward to unscrew the culprit. If it is like my wheel there is no flange to center the wheel to the hub. Once you break it loose you can unscrew it with your fingers. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)
