2003 Defender 90 Td5 XS CSW Bonatti Grey

Torx socket set

Evening,
I've got a few jobs to do on my Td5 - re align the doors and a general service.
Both seem to use Torx / star headed bolts. Is that the right name for them?
I can't seem to find anyone on line who sells a small range of socket/ screwdriver things to fit them. Anyone got any suggestions?
Cheers Paul. 2003 Td5 90XS

Try looking at the Sealey website.

An independent tool supplier will also do all the required stuff - if you have one!!

Not cheap but I managed to snap a Halfords torx socket removing a seat bracket

I use Snap On but that said Halfords Pro range is well worth a look and has a great guarantee
