Moss Europe sell them for around £8-10. Have you tried having someone sit in the car and hold the brake on while you try and undo it?

The nut bit at the end of the pipe is completely rounded of, I have looked and many people have just cut it of can I do that then get a replacement nut bit at the end of the pipe which goes in to the top of the braided bit ? Would it just slot over the pipe? Thanks
