What Alan Key will fit Torx 50 to take the steering wheel off?

[logic_guy]

The biggest size I have is T45. I don't want to be spending out on something that i'm going to use for 5 minutes so I thought that a alen key might fit.

I have Imperial and Metric on hand. I've not taken anything apart yet as i wanted to be sure that it might be possible for it to work.

Buy from halfords, use, return saying its the wrong size

Everyones a winner!

This is true, the staff are pretty much numb. I returned my used spark plugs in the new packaging and got my £22 back.

I've looked and they don't do T50's. Local motor factors don't sell them either (only up to T45)

The only option is to buy Torx Alan Keys from online.

You'll most likely round it off using an Alan key, just by a torx set, never know when you'll need them ;)

This was months ago dude and ive been back since.

I looked at who was at the counter.. seen a young lass there, made sure i didnt see the dude that served me. I told her they were the wrong ones. I got my money back. Happy days. If only they knew i drove there with their new spark plugs in.

They got trolled hard.

They were then put back on the rack..

Edit; back on topic i had to buy my bit from Halfords. I kept that though haha.

You're pretty dense aren't you.

Buy one from Halfords. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_16 9147_langId_-1_categoryId_255215

That goes up to T50. My full Halfords tool kit goes up to T60.

[logic_guy]

I'm sure *Torx is the real name for them. 'Star Bit' lool.

Thank you for the link though :)

did that with my old fiesta bulbs. figured out i'd bought better ones for the high-beams (when they were BOGOF or something years back) so put my cruddy bulbs in the boxes, took them back and got the other set ;)
