You can get them at Sears. If your going to work on your car I would invest in both the screw driver set and the socket set. They dont cost that much there, there not Craftsman though??? In the Auto tools section at most Sears.

Yes, inverted torx. A 6 or 7 mm socket might work, but you won't be able to get it down tight.
Sear, or even Kragen sells inverted torx bits.
I think the one for that is an E10 or 12...I ferget.
Just buy a set if you plan on keeping the car.
15-30 dollars...
