What size Torx bit to remove doors in a 1999 New Beetle.

[asnowsquall]

I picked up two bits last night a T50 and 55 and they are big. I saw a metric set one was a 12mm maybe 12 point. Need to stop and get the right tool on the way home. Anyone know a sI need to swap a door off the parts car onto the keeper.
Thanks,
Dave

the 3 torx screws at the bottom of the door (among other places on the car too) are size T20 - a T15 is good to have around too I think (don't quote me)

You'll need a triple-square bit to pull the doors, not Torx.

oops, sorry, had removing door panel on the mind since I just went thru that . . .

And 10 mm it is. Picked up a kit which has 3 or 4 in it, have to look I'm tired. Got it at Autozone for $12.

Glad you got it figured out pretty easily after my misstatement and Des' input - have fun and good luck with the door swap!
