    Cladding Question

    In the near future, I'm going to replace the front cladding (bumper) and put on Tone's trailer hitch. That means removing the rear cladding too. The question I want to know is what type of bit do I use to take the cladding off. Does anyone know what size it is also.

    Thanks,Peace, and Happy Holidays.

    P.S.---I bought one at Advance Auto Parts...it comes in a pack of two. Each one has 90deg. bends at each end with the torx head on it. Kind of shaped like a "Z" but with greater (90deg) angle @ each different-sized end. Thus, you have 4 different-sized torx heads amongst the 2 "Z" shaped tools. Only 1 end/size fits the cladding bolts. I used mine to remove the rear bumper to install my hitch.

    Hey man, I believe what you need is a T-30 Torx Socket. I believe it tells ya what you need on Tones web site. But if I remember right its a T-30.
