Help Locating Socket for 12 pt Bolt?
 

Hey guys I can't seem to find a socket to fit this 12 pt bolt. It's basically like a triple square bit. Of course there are 12 pt sockets out there for normal hexagon bolts but they will easily strip the head. This bolt and three others secure the torque converter on a Sporto. Any leads appreciated, I would prefer to buy over borrow. The size I need is 9mm.

Thanks

You need a Snap-On 9mm 12pt. socket.

Try sears. I had to find some funky 12 point star bit thingy for the screws on my door catches.
Sears had it.

Sears sells them, these are not exclusive to Porsche at all, quite common on Jeeps as well.

It doesn't look like a tripple square, more like a spline drive. Don't know how they are sized though..

He just needs to ask for an internal torx socket, they will fix him up.
