Hi Brian,

Could you explain ...  " ... you might want a 3/8" drive 12mm 12 point to
hammer around them if they strip ... " ?

Do you mean a 12 mm socket hammered on to the outer circumference of the
head of the triple square bolt?

I have stripped triple squares on my car and was trying to think of a way
to get them out.  My idea was to saw the heads off and then try unscrewing
tehm with vise grips ...  but it sounds like a doubtful plan.  I'm
interested to know what others have found to work.

thanks

Dave C
