Special tool for screws?

[Jerry Crockford]

Hi,

I have an Astra convertible, and would like to get into the dash to put a couple of wires in for a phone kit.

The screws folding everything together are an unusual 'star' shape, rather thaqn a standard Philips head.

Does anyone know what this is called or where to get the tool to turn them?

Thanks,



Jerry
