Not worth the cost of shipping the triple square socket both ways. You can get the socket in BluePoint for about $10. Just flag down the next Snap-On truck you see.

BLPXZNM3816, Socket Driver, Metric, Triple Square, Stubby XZN, Blue-Point, 16mm

I got mine at the local no name auto parts store. $6. It said it was for VW cars. But 16mm T S is all that matters.

Really? I couldn't find one. What store did you go to? Plus my plug is the anti tamper with the nub in the middle. Like I said though, worse case scenario is I have to drill that out.

Gabe's Auto Parts in Nampa. Ask for Thane. Google for the number. Yes mine is the security with the nub hole. Isn't that the same as triple square ?
