Socket kit can be had at walmart for less than $20-- and always super handy to have in the car.

It doesn't have to be a deep socket, but helps make things easier.

All the things we've discussed are basic tools everyone should have if they do any auto work.

It takes a T10 torx. I hate the bits because I always lose them but I love this color matching torx set I picked up at Autozone.
