This is a bitch to get out, its like its welded in there!
Anyone else experienced this? There seems to be a metal rind at the front but its not part of the seal and the seal is just coming out in bits!

Shouldn't be any problem at all to hook out. I've even seen fresh ones fitted without even removing the old one!

funny thing is the new one looked nothing like the old one.
Done it now just thought something might have been wrong.
Umm, might do that seal aswell.
