I found a source for this tool:

Duratool Five Point Torx Security Bit Set, 11 Pieces | BS-11T (BS11T) | Duratool

If you need it. I bought a set for myself.

 

I bought a dewalt 5 point torx set at homedepot for about $8 bucks. Just another place people can snag one.

 

Made by DeWalt? Cool. Please provide a part number for others to use? Thanks!

 

Once you start lookin'...

Amazon.com: BOSCH CC60391 6 Piece Security Torx Bit Set: Michael Anderson: Home Improvement

 

I think it was, let me check.
Yep DEWALT Torx Bit Set 7 Piece
Model # DW2067SCR

They worked great!

 

Hmmmmmm. don't need this, seems my MAF has hex head screws in it.
Rekon how that happened ???

BTW, going over to Atlanta one day this week to pick up a set of Morimoto HID's.

 

Wish I had that before I pulled mine out. I did find that a nice set of vise grips can grip the head of the screw and turn it out. It isn't torqued down very hard since it is in plastic, but the proper tool is definitely the way to go!

 

The thread started about five point Torx and then two sets mentioned are six point security bits.
I mention this before someone buys the wrong set.

 

Thanks, Dave. I couldn't find an accurate/detailed description on the Bosch or Dewalt sets. 6 point. huh?

 

Scroll down in the site in your second post and you get another five point set at a good price.

Bingo! Always count on the Canucks...

 

huh, I know that Dewalt at homedepot had two different sets in the same exact packaging. One must be 6 and the other 5 because the one I bought worked perfectly.

 

yep two different packages two different prices.
Torx Bit Set 7 Piece-DW2067SCR at The Home Depot
1 in. 7-Piece Torx Bit Tip Set-DW2067 Z at The Home Depot
My bad.
One of the packages was the correct one for removing the MAF as I used them.

 

I was at HD today. No 5 point Torx at my store. All kinds of 6 point in Dewalt and other brands.

James, I did some digging on the DeWalt and Bosch websites and could nut find any 5 points in the online catalogs. Standard (6-point) and 6-point security only.

Don't know what to say...

 

Harbor Freight if you have one in your area..

Man just checked and mine are the 5 point. I thought i bought them at home depot and i thought the were dewalt but i guess the must be another brand and i must have purchased them elsewhere.

 

To remove my 5 point Torx screw in the MAF I used a tamper flat screw driver. That's a flat bit with a notch in the centre to clear the pin.
It worked OK but made a bit of a mess of the socket.

 

Every tool has its job and every job has its tool...

Ask my wife. She'll tell you what a tool I can be...and some friends will, too...
