I know there are some fellow modders on here. I don’t want to buy something I will have no other use for. Anyone have a Torx set or specifically the two sizes needed to open up a 360 that I could take for a couple days? Believe the official sizes are T10 and T8. ---

You only need one bit, at least that’s all I use and I’ve done a bunch of them. ---

hmm…interesting. I actually got all of the bigger screws out with a hex key except for two of them that were semi-stripped since its a banned console that was opened by someone before. ---

They’re not tamper proof though. Those have the little peg sticking up from the center and you have to use the bits that are hollowed out. These are just standard torx. ---

I picked up my cheap set at a Hectors Hardware in one of those discount bins for $3. I know harbor freight has the small sets for $3 or $4, and the 100 piece set for less than $10. ---

Have you guys ever even taken apart a 360? ![http://www.genieindustrial.com/images/tamper-proof-torx-sockets.jpg](http://www.genieindustrial.com/images/tamper-proof-torx-sockets.jpg) That’s a tamper proof torx. ![http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/attachments/appliances/16431d1233962250-screw-bakc-washing-machine-torx.jpg](http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/attachments/appliances/16431d1233962250-screw-bakc-washing-machine-torx.jpg) That’s a regular torx, what you find inside the 360 case. You can remove them with a standard torx bit, available at any hardware store. The only tamper protection on the 360 is it’s screwless case that once you know what you’re doing you can open with a tiny flat head screwdriver in about 15 seconds. ---

Go to harbor freight and get like 25 bits for $5. I know my cobra emblem uses a security torx bit, it’s such a stupid idea. Not like they are uncommon bits, now you need to have double the bits so you have regular and security. ---
