Or just hammer a 3/8 or some such socket on to the random triangular bolts!

Once upon a time there were a couple of trilobular ECU bolt removing tools manufactured by Lower.

Have any them resurfaced?

For the avoidance of any future doubt, lower's special ECU removal tools have either gone missing or are broken. I had the last one and it was shagged.

kawasakivtec removed my ECU with the method described above...simplez

TGM removed mine again with a normal socket and I now have Normal bolts. Done it a few times now, it's a 5 minute job.
