Hello everyone.
Me again! I am attempting to swap stereos on my '85 New Yorker. The problem
I am having is that I can not find anything thing to remove the two screws
that hold the stereo in place. It' got a round head with three indentations
about 120 degrees apart on the head.

I tried most of my local auto parts and they looked at me like I was on
something.

HELP!!

After receiving info from Steve B., on the tool needed, ( Eaton
tamper-resistant fasteners Socket) and it's unavailability except through
Snap-On, I pulled out my drill and drilled a few holes on the plastic hold
down brackets. Then broke the brackets off and used small vise grips to
remove the hold down screws.

In my haste, I accidentally tapped the rear view mirror with my forehead and
it popped off.

Anyone know. if those rear view mirror repair kits will work in cold
weather. (I'm near Chicago) and it's about 30 degrees here.

pick any of them up at the local autozone, run your car, set the fan & heat
on high, direct it at the front winshield..... wait til it warms up.
 
Miller Tool makes the little socket that removes those screws. It is tool #
C-4537.
Miller can be reached at: 800-801-5420. Be prepared to pay a bunch, but at
least they have it.

Good luck,
