I always wonder how they can call it tamper-proof when you can go down to
the local hardware/car parts store and buy a set of them for maybe $5-10...
And if you want some other stuff, local specialty stores or mail-order like
Techni-Tool can get you just about anything you need... So much for
tamper-proof.
