seriously....a 12 point socket is a VERY STANDARD socket that you can get anywhere.. they even come in most tool sets (those and 6 point sockets)

I have personally delt with those bolts. NEITHER a standard or metric 12 point will fit. Usually aftermarket control arms will come with the special socket needed. However my friends didnt. I was able to use my "gator grip" socket to work just fine. It was barley big enough, but worked.
