If you've got a set, then please sell me (or let me borrow) the socket to take off the bolts to put the lower control arms on. I just bought a set of Function7 lower control arms (they're beautiful BTW, review and DIY coming soon) and these don't come with the socket like the SPC ones...

Spencer, it is a 10 star bolt rather than a normal 12 star socket...or did i get that reversed? Either way, no normal socket will fit around it.

Well, all of the "Torx" socket sets that I find through Google come in 6 points. Maybe the 10 point are called something else? Anyone know what that something is?

I have never been able to find a 10 star. They are either 6 or 12. Maybe a honda shop has a socket that you can um...borrow
