C230 Thermostat torx size?

I'm replacing the thermostat in a 2004 C230 4-cyl sedan. The thermostat has three inverted torx bolts. I'm thinking these require an E-10 torx socket. Anyone know for sure? Thanks

It does take an E-8 Torx socket.

I originally asked if anyone knew the correct socket size needed to remove a thermostat. After I found out for myself that it takes an E-10 socket, I thought it might help someone else.
