If you mean the ones that hold the heatshield onto the exhaust manifold, I seem to remember that an 8mm ring spanner works just as well or better (access-wise for the rear one) than the proper torx bit.  :)

Yea the ones that hold the heat shield on, was wondering about sockets as its abit tight where sum of the bolts are, not sure i would get a socket in the gaps. Ill try the 8ml spanner, if that dont work ill look into gettin sum star spanners.
