And if you don't have a lot of experience with torx fasteners, be aware that it is surprisingly easy ( cf. socket head cap screws a.k.a. allen screws ) to inadvertently select the size of torx bit that is one size undersize. It feels quite snug.........until you try the next size up and it fits...

Always try the next size up, just in case.
