[QUOTE="Tony Jaques, post: 385537, member: 25767"] Hello to all three of you. Thank you very much for taking the trouble to post those very helpful replies. Indeed I did find that the pieces that I needed were not available separately, but it only cost me £9 to buy both valves from B & Q. Looking at the price of typical adapter bits that is barely more than the adapters would have been if I had been able to buy them. Thank you for the tip about the allen key. As essentially an electronics man I didn't have one anywhere near that big. But it was easy to find and quite cheap. I take the point about replacing the lot, but leaving the existing valves in place did enable me to do the job without turning the water off, and of course it became just a "nut and bolt" job. I may regret the decision later but I will see how it goes. So, thank you gentlemen; the help was much appreciated. Tony... [/QUOTE]
