    triple squares for those that call them twelve point if you have euro cars they use the shit out of them. the 16 tamper proof is a must if you have a bmw and want to do a brake job.

    Don?t understand the German fascination with trip square and torx. Ended up with some funky home made job because of clearance on the B8.
    That plus the torque to yield fasteners everywhere.

    triple square is all euro torx is everyone and the torx plus is even more bullshit then you have the shit gm pulled with the mortoq bits I have those also but its just stupid. The engineers need to be kicked in the nuts for coming up with this bullshit. Torque to yield has been around for many years and in some cases I can agree with it but its not worth a shit on head bolts in my opinion. Especially a diesel I studded my 6.0 with ARP.
