is it a torx screw? ...on my 1.4 the screws just rusted i cant even make it out

its like an 'inside-out' tor'x screw...

easiest way i found, was to take the trim from inside the boot off and use a pair of pliars to turn it... and if it doesnt move then, what i did was heated it up until the plastic clip on the back melted, and i could remove it, then just unscrewed with pliars... think i put a self tapper in there after

male torx is the one with the star bit in the middle and you get the bits in little bit sets.. female torx is the other one goes up in sizes that mean nothing..(like an 8mm spanner is 8mm funnily enough)
