External torx for convertible seat track bolts?

[cwalker509]

IS that what these bolt heads are called? External Torx? I managed to remove all the others with a 5/16 socket but one is being stubborn, Hoping to get a quick answer before I run to the store and start randomly trying tools. My other seats use a normal hex head.

That looks like e-torx to me.

Newer ford driveshafts use that style bolt. I had luck using a 12 point socket on them.

E-torx (external torx) it is. Was able to get last one out. I had two more on a rusted out frame that I gave up on. Whatever bolt they used did not rust. Still had the yellow plating despite the entire floor rusted out and the seat frame was even rusted thru

E-torx. You can get them at Harbor Freight if there is one near you.
