Message	Difference is I didnt use the heat gun. It works and it only took about 30 minutes to do both sides. I want to say it took about as long as it took to jack up the car, remove the wheels and place the car on jack stands. I read about how hard it was and all the complaining, when the first one came out I was like this is it, must be a fluk. Then when the other one came out just as easy I was like come on man. Why are so many people making such a big deal of this, but then again I have rebuilt plent of engines for our cars, so maybe thats a possibility. If you put a extended socket on the back side you should be able to push it thru.
