Ask Anthony, I'm sure he has the socket you're looking for since he has one for his "Tranny"

Could try Cambodian Tire, they rent out some tools (dunno if this would be one, but it doesn't hurt to ask).

try a napa auto parts if there is one close by. they surprisingly have random european car tools. I needed to get a small 12 point torx for my cousins old porsche 914 and we went to them as a last resort and surprisingly they had it.

i would also check canadian tire and lordco.

good luck

i thought i needed the 17mm allen and can tire/lordco both didn't have it. Changed oil today and noticed that it wasn't a 17mm allen. So now that I know I need the triple square I will go back to lordco and NAPA (thanx). I know I can buy it for $27 from ecs tuning.com but would rather find it locally first.
