Seat Bolt head size

[Samick007]

Hey guys, quick question...I need to take out the rear seat in my 2006 E350 but was wondering if anyone knew what size of star bit (torx) those bolts take. I only have a T50 and it's too small, was wondering if there was a standard size for those so I could pick one up? Thanks! P.S. Loving the new ride...except in this snow!!!!

T55 I think.

T55 PLUS is the correct size TORX. The regular T55 will fit loosely and after one or two bolts will likely shatter. Been there and done that.

Seat bolts are Torx plus. If you use a regular star drive it will strip out. You can buy a set of torx plus sockets of around $30. This is a worth while investment as other things in the interior also use it i.e. seat belt shoulder strap reals, dash plastic ect.
