Tamper Proof Trox Bits

Did the Tamper Proof T-40 Trox bit come with Broncos or do you need to purchase them separately? I just bought a 92 Bronco and want to take the top off but have no Trox Bit. Can you get one anywhere?
Thanks

They used the tamperproof screws/bolts to keep people from taking off the tops because ot the third brake light and the seatbelts in the back. You are gonna need a torx 50 for the belts too...

You can use a standard easy-to-find T-40 by using a small punch & hammer to break out the tamper post in the center of each bolt head, but Lowe's sells a set of Bosch tamper-torx bits for a few bucks.
