You dont actually need a torx - you can make do with a long flathead screw
driver wide enough to go diagonally across the torx. I got a set made by
blackspur tools which had a 1/4" bladed 6inch long driver from a tool shop
in Bristol for �1.25. I can imagine that blackspur tools are feely available
anywhere..

Bear in mind you are only torxed into plastic so you shouldn't have to force
the torx head to get it out..

I have successfully used these drivers to open a plus and several se/30's.
The classic should be the same ease to open providing you can find a long
enough driver.
