Trying to remove SRS steering wheel. What size tamper proof torx socket?
I went to the junkyard again today pick some more parts off of this '93 SE-R, specifically the steering wheel. Unfortunately, there are these tamper-proof torx bolts that hold the steering wheel.

Anybody know exactly what size bolt this is?

I went to sears, harbor freight, and lowe's, and none of them have a set of tamper proof torx sockets large enough to fit this bolt.

I know many of you must have removed the SRS steering wheel before.

Where do I get the socket? Special-order tool from nissan?

I'm assuming 'H' is the size? I looked at sears...they didn't have anything that was big enough.

autozone or advance auto in the cheap tools section they should defiantly have them. Sears has been sucking lately. They told me I had lifetime warranty when I bought my torque wrench all of a sudden its (limited lifetime) now I purchased it. Screw job all around I might as well bought one from walmart.

Got it from there too for 4 and some change, sold as a 2 pack. Just ask the parts guy at the counter for a T50 bit, PN 775-5941.
