Can anyone direct me to a place to buy a cheap set of Tamper Resistant (aka security) Torx bits? They're the ones with the hole in the end of the bit to fit over the peg in the center of the screw head.
My cab has a Capcom System II board screwed to the wall inside using these damn things. I want to remove it.
I found a place online that has the bits but they want about $20 for a set. I really don't want to spend that much on a tool that I'll probably never need to use again.
I'm not positive of the size so I want to buy a small set. I think it's somewhere between a TR7 and a TR10 size.

I bought mine at a local 'mom and pop' hardware store by my house. They sold individual bits for about 60 cents. The smaller hardware stores are great for this kind of stuff, places like Home Depot and Lowes never have it.

I bought a set at Lowes for about $8.
You'll have to look yourself though because most likely the workers have no idea what they are.
