I am having trouble finding purchase - according to searches on this site, they're T30.
Are they "tamperproof" Torx, or do you just have to hold the driver at a funny angle?
Wanting to install the steering angle sensor.
Thanks, Adam.

Hi Adam,
I had the same problem, and I used a small piece of a mirror. Do the same to find the right angle and you will insert the driver in the hole more easily !!

It was somewhat fiddly, but all good now. The airbag/horn pad was all but impossible to perfectly align with the relief in the steering wheel (as before removal). Nothing serious, but enough to cause passing vexation to the fussy!
Hardest thing I found, was undoing the mounting catches for the clockspring connector plugs, on the column further down. At least I know now, should I ever want a steering wheel with radio controls on it, that the extra wiring runs far as the clockspring connectors but not the unit itself...
Thanks for the advice and encouragement.
Cheers, Adam.
