my VR ecu has those hideous "security screws", what kind of screw driver head do I need to get them off? where can I buy one from?

use a allen key to remove the memcal cover plate with those star head srews or go get a bit

I know this is an old post but can someone tell me if it is recommended to disconnect my cars battery prior to removing memcal?
I'm hearing conflicting stories.
Cheers.

I did when I changed mine on my VS, better to be safe than sorry, especially when dealing with electrical gear.
