need help removing MAF sensor from housing

what's the name and size of the key i need to remove the actual sensor from its housing? i looks exactly like the on on timw's HID security bolts but a size or two smaller. kinda like a torx bit but with that nubbin in the middle.

and of course, i'm assuming i can find this thing at most radio shacks right??

thanks guys.

Re: need help removing MAF sensor from housing

I got my set from Harbor Freight. They were about $12.00 for a 12 piece M/F kit. If you can't find the ones with the litte hole in the center, you can either make one yourself by drilling out the center of a torx bit...or, simply drill off the little "nipple" on the MAF bolt and use a regular bit. You can get individual drivers at AutoZone/PepBoys. I believe the size was a #9 if not mistaken.
