Hello Jim:  Yes Jim we use those in the elevator trade for hall call stations so people cannot take them apart to easy.  You can find them in a good electronic store or mcmaster car.  Lynn

  Hi All, 

  After moving to FL and registering my cars, I realized that someone had installed a license plate with what appeared to be allen head bolts.  Upon closer inspection, the actual bolt has a hex-like shape, with a STUD in the center.  Thus, if I were to use an allen wrench, it would have to be hollow to allow to actually work.  I looked up some tools on the McMaster Carr website and a tool on catalog page 2662, called the, "Tamper-Resistent Torx."  Not being familiar with this type of tool/fastener, I was hoping someone could shed some light on the subject before I ordered it (for instance, is there an Allen style tamper resistant fastener, or only the "torx" style head?). 

  Thanks, 
  Jim W.
