Default Torx size under neath master cylinder holding shock/strut

Does anyone know Torx size of the bolts underneath the master cyclinder are? These are the ones holding the shock/spring. I don't want to buy a whole set just to take off these 2 bolts.. If you could let me know that would be greatly appreciated.

And when you get them out, swap them with the passenger side.

You can get a wrench underneath the MC to tighten or loosen them and NOT have to remove the MC to gain access ...

Excellent tip!! That does beat having to loosening the m/c every time.

I'll second that. I did did one better after getting fairly perturbed about having to move the MC, I chunked that Torx in my bolt bin and replaced it with a regular hex head.
