Torx 55 - Sources?

[Kahuna]

Hi Folks - I'm about to fit a set of engine bars on my GS and just realised I need a large Torx. I think its 55, and the largest I've been able to locate is a 50 at Halfords. Machine Mart don't list them either so I'm a bit stumped as to where I might source one on Tyneside.

If I can I'll get a full set - any ideas???

From the ebay search looks like Draper do them, and most DIY shops seem to sell that make

BTW I see the smilies are moving around in an anti-proff type style

John - Machine Mart don't list them in the catalogue so I don't think so.

But looks like folks think the DIY shops will have something. I'll scoot round the B&Q / Homebase in the next hour or so and see what they have!

Thanks folks - got a little adapter (Torx 55 on one end and a small hex head on the other) for £1.10 at the little local car accessory shop!

Good deal - unfortunately the windscreen wiper fell off the gas gussler on the way, so the whole bill was £10but WTF - get me bars on straight after the MotoGP Quals this afternoon. WoooHooo.

I fitted my engine bars this weekend & purchased a 3/8 drive T55 socket at Halfords.
