I removed my fuse panel for a now abandoned project a while ago but had a hard time with one of the 4 bolts. New bolt arrived and is in the glovebox in an envelope (in the garage, at my house, nowhere close to where I am at the time of writing). I can't remember whether it was a torx or hex bolt. The Ultimate Garge has a Facom summer sale so I thought I'd pick up some additional tools. If someone can refresh my memory on which of the two that bolt is, you'd definitely be helping out  |

One of them is a real b/tch to get in and out. It's an always-replace item since the head strips so easily.

A long Tee-handle torx driver should work. Ron told me about the Tee-handle trick. Just couldn't remember that it was indeed Torx. Thanks for your help Jon.

I've never tried a t-handle and I have a nice set of Facoms. My mistake I guess. I always end up farting around with 1/4" drive parts and elbows and it never works out clean.
