Front bumper removal - what size tool do I need (oh er missis)

[ihs61]

The non-working fog light saga continues, thanks to Crasher for his reply. What size or torx tool do I need to remove the lower two bolts hidden behind the fog light grilles ? I have tried T50 too small and T55 too big. Also whilst I am on about odd sized bolts, what size is the st/st torx screws that are used to hold on the rear discs, T30 is just a touch small. many thanks to all. Ian

Is it T35? I thought they were T30 tbh, sometimes you may think the torx you are trying to use are too big but tap them past the rust and you are in. My torx are fairly standard Snap-On size wise so it's probably just the rust making you think you have it wrong, give 'em a tap!

Hi thanks for taking time to reply. If they are supposed to be T35 they have been swopped as they are much bigger than that. A T50 is a touch small and a T55 is too big. I like your idea of giving them a tap, I contemplated more than a tap at weekend. I have ordered a set of metric spline sockets to see if I can get one of these to fit. Regards Ian
