[chrisd1986]

Im hoping a generous forum member lend me a tamperprof torx20 bit please. Im wanting to swap my front indicators and i cant get the headlights out because some spoon bender has used these screws instead of the bolts that were there originally

£1.49 including postage gets you 2 T-20 bits that will fit into a 1/4 inch socket:

They did in perfect condition thanks

[therealnovaboy]

You must be able to use vice grips/pliers/drill/hacksaw to get them off. Youll be fitting the proper ones again anyway I presume.

Thats the one, if you tell me what it cost i can tape the money up and stick it in the packet when i send it back

[therealnovaboy]

Just go to a shop and buy one.

[pottersrebel]

[Martin.p]

Send me your address if you need it.

[chrisd1986]

I would if they were open when i wasnt in work and the nearest one is atleast 15 miles from home and i woulnt trust the missus with somthing hi tech as that

[meritlover]

can you not hacksaw a slot in it and unscrew it with a flat screwdriver?

[chrisd1986]

Not if the headlight bracket is plastic

[Liam]

Can you not use a hammer and chisel? Or maybe even oxy acetylene?

[turbojolt]

[chrisd1986]

I'm confused, That's nice a male torx bit. Go to Halfords and buy one.. Hell go to tesco and buy a cheap screw driver set, they have them in.. (mine did)

My nearest tesco is over 30 miles away, im living in the sticks and every local shop and petrol station is shut by 8 and i roll in at half 8

Tbh on a screw that size the pin in the middle will snap off out the way a piece of piss and then find a small flat head that will fit across two of the points (surely you have a naff flat head you can file/grind down a bit to make it fit??
I'll still send you this one if you like though.

[chrisd1986]

Ive got torx bits and ive got tamper prof ones but that would be the only one i dont have and i dont fancy hitting it with a hammer incase my slam pannel disintergrates lol

[pottersrebel]

snap of the pin and try a hex bit of similar size if its not over tight it may undo or as martin says use a small flat head bit and tap that into the bolt head
