I'm just wondering if anyone here has any experience in installing the M3 strut brace?

I tried installing it tonight (first proper DIY job that isn't a cosmetic mod) and I got stuck at the centre Torx bolt that holds the OEM strut braces in place.

It's just at such an awkward angle, at full stretch and it's really damn tight. I even tried hammering the socket wrench to no avail.

Because I needed to use an extension on the socket wrench in order for it to reach the bolt inside the hole there's a fair amount of play and I'm having a lot of difficulty applying the torque to the bolt...

Does anyone with experience have any tips or pointers? I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.
