    is the argos wrench and socket set any good. didn't want to spend too much just want a set a remove the rear light. got two lights blubs replaced last weekend and the warning blub sign is still. just want to check that the man in the garage put the right ones in. i'm hoping its not thing too serious.

    What kind of car is it, didn't think there was too many that you would need a socket set to replace a rear bulb (but an old celica of mine did). Are all the lights working now?

    If you want a socket set for simple jobs, then an argos one would be fine. But i'd look in some local auto factors (or halfords), sometimes they have far better set for similar money.

    You can tell the difference between them and a decent set, but I've never had any argos tools break or wear out before their time. They are v good value x.gif

    You would probably get a cheaper set in Lidl, there grand if you don't swing off them.

    hi i had the same problem with a punto before. The garage put in a wrong bulb. I can't remember exactly but its along the line of they put in a 5w bulb and it should be a 10w.
