All i used was a hacksaw or dremmel to cut a slot then unscrew with a normal flathead screwdriver.

get a "security tool" set from maplins etc they should have all the bits needed to open most stuff.

they were torx on mine...

, if not, try modiying the head to fit another screw driver in, like martin said.

i think that vaux don't sell a special tool to stop people from clocking dashes
