Default Torx needed for BK Bar

Hi All

According to the instruction on the BK site, I need a T-500 Torx. Is this what everyone is using? It looks like a T-50 would work pefect.

Thanks
Bud

Bud...There is no such thing as a T-500 Torx Bit. This is a typo, they probably ment T-50.

Not true, the T-500 is specific for seat belts, although I believe the name has been changed to a T47 -> http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/pro_d...store&tool=all

Snap-on part# FTX47E

That being said, a T50 works just fine.
