Default replacing wheel stud

2 wheel studs broke off in the front passenger side of the s2.

Thanks in advance
Just wondering if anyone had experience replacing these things. I've done a search and replacing these lilttle boogers are a pain.

Just wanted to see if anyone could help me before I tow my car away and send it in to honda.

Anyone know a good shop also around the spring valley area that would do this?

They are a pain. You have to remove the brake caliper, take off the hub, and take a hammer to those suckers. Any bodshop would be able to help you out John

I had to replace my front passenger as well. Replaced them with Skunk2's extended though. All 4 for 50 at Discount tires. Talked to one of the guys. He was chill with it.

Hey John...Are you using your Google phone to get on here? I'd like to see the quality it shows on the phone when you're on the net. BTW...Did that new phone come out yet with the 8.0 MP camera?If so, I'd like to come by and check it out.

Sorry to hear about your wheel studs situation...If it makes you feel any better I'm getting a new passenger side mirror(Mine has an annoying buzz when I drive over certain roads and get the rpms at a certain level).
