Thanks, read his post. Still unable to find the tool needed to remove the head. Like he says, a T50 torx is slightly loose. Could it be a TP50. Nobody seems to know.

You may be right and this will be a good find. I didn't knew there were two types of torx shape. TP seems to have stronger "points" than T.
Maybe a phone call to a GM tech service will enlighten this question? Would you?
