hey....i have an el falcon and im trying to remove my radio/casette, and i have taken off the plastic piece that goes around the radio, but i am faced with these two screws that have a funny head on them
instead of the normal phillips head it has like a 6spoked star with a circle in the middle that sticks back out.
Is there a special tool i need to get these out and is that how i remove the radio/casette

The ones in mine are T20 however I'm not sure itf they are the factory screws

Yes they are called Security Torx Bits as opposed to a standard torx bit which doesn't have the hole for the centre piece
