These are the ones that grace my toolbox:

I've used these for years I've only ever managed to kill one, and that 
was through some serious abuse. I have all the main sizes used on a 
DeLorean, and several in a non flex head as well. A 10mm one is superb 
for getting knee pads and the dashboard off for example.They're not 
cheap, but quality costs money (I did hear that Halfords' tools are made 
by one of the big brands under licence, but I forget which one).

The door striker pins are 17mm. Also very useful for doing up the left 
exhaust hanger bracket.

The 8mm one comes in handy far more often than you might think too.

Halfords only do mail order within the UK but I'd be happy to act as 
middle-man if anyone wants. Mail me off-list.
