MAF element bolts...
Hello all, I ordered the VW MAF (06A-906-461-A) to replace the MAF on the TT but need to keep my original housing... Does any one know what kind of bolts those are, and how to take them out? At least the name to find the right tool... Appreciate the help...

You'll probably not be able to get...>
The high security Torx bit that is used. Just use pliers or vice grips on the shoulder of the screws. It's a very coarse thread, so once they start they'll come out easily. Replace with 3/4" #8 Phillips head sheet metal screws or something similar.

I purchased a set of security torx bits... Murphy's law.. The size I needed wasn't in the set
odd, though, there was a slot in the case for the next size up (the one I needed).. The # of tools in the case was correct...
Like Steve said, I used vice grips and threw them away

Find a cheap set of "Security bits", attack one with a grinder
this "modded" bit slips over the center post in the middle of the head, and into the slots near the edge. Works great.

Get some 8x32..>>
Knurl heads...1/2" long. No need to even re-thread. They'll screw right in to the stock MAF housing..
