I bought this little guy out of frustration and it has proven its worth.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08D6YDQNH...roduct_details I was working on the wife's Audi A3 to replace a servo motor on the HVAC system that had crapped out and air was not going where it needed to. The servo in question was way up in there and attached with two torx bit screws. It was impossible to get anything thicker than about an inch on the screw. This little fella allow you to put just the torx bit in it making it nice and thin. By holding it with your thumb and middle finger and with your ring finger in the loop on the end and your little finger outside, it won't slip out of your hand and you can get enough torque on it to loosen the bolts. Once loose, the thumbwheel is used to loosen the screw quickly. Same for reinstallation since the ratchet can be reversed with the lever. Great little tool for working in tight spaces. Comes with a 1/4 socket adapter as well.
