Hello all,
This forum is invaluable. Thanks for all the advice from everyone. I have a question about replacing the cartridge in my shower. I open up the trim and this is what I get. Instructions say to unscrew the bonnet to get at the cartridge but is there a special tool to get it out? I asked Toto and they told me to use a large crescent wrench. This bonnet is about two inches in diameter. I tried channel locks but it would not grip it properly (the bonnet is fairly thin) and it wouldn’t budge. Any ideas before I go hunt for a really large crescent wrench that I’m unlikely to use again?
