Does come with either a pin to pull or a little screw to remove, cant remember exactly, new ones come pinned somehow and centred, make sure wheels are straight ahead position and steering wheel straight also ,

So what your saying is that they come pre-centered so you just need to pull the pin out and they should work?

Yep, precentred.

If for any unfortunate reason its not pegged at all( very unlikely) you can carry out manual clockspring centering.

Turn the clockspring in a clockwise direction until a resistance is felt.

Turn the clockspring in a counterclockwise direction 2.5 revolutions, until the arrow marked on the rotor of the clockspring aligns with the raised 'V' section on the outer cover of the clockspring.

Alright thanks, That should make it easy to install without breaking it again ;D
