Hollow Allen Wrenches?
NoOne=NBA=:
Has anyone ever seen a hollow allen wrench?
The OEM Tron handles have allen screws that have a little nipple in the middle to prevent them from being removed with a normal allen wrench.
I've got a DOT CP coming, that I'm sure I'll need to clean the handle up on, and would prefer to be able to remove the screws without resorting to using my "Screw-out".

I'm guessing they aren't allen screws, but are actually torx screws because Happs sells tamper-resistant torx bit sets.

They are tamper proof (by name only) torx. You can actually get sockets to fit these just about anywhere, Even Home Depot has them.

Not ideal but when I haven't had the right size I have been known to flatten the little nipple with a nail + hammer. Then a normal allen wrench can be used...

www.therealbobroberts.com sells a reasonable set, also auto parts stores or tool stores.
