Default Cam Lock Tool

I just did timing belt, tensioner, all idlers, water pump and thermostat on my 2003 Sti Type UK. 84k on clock and invoice for one previous belt change but they clearly did not change idlers as some of them were noisy and you could feel bearings running rough. Anyhoo, I made myself a little cam lock tool which saved a bit of time by holding the right hand cams in position when the belt was off. It's for the cars where there is allen key heads on end of cams (top one is under a cover) Doubt I will be needing it again so if anyone is thinking of doing their timing belt drop me a PM and I'll post it on.
Its the second belt I've done (previously on a WRX) and the only tricky bit is the crank bolt - once that's off its easy.
cheers
Jeff

Had a couple of requests for it so it will be with another member soon. Ideally it then gets put on here again to benefit as many folk as possible.
