IIRC, the new lights need a T8 wrench.

Its either a t8 or t7 , but i had too drill the hole a little bigger in order for my torx shaft too fit in it.
Here is a link to a previous thread on this topic.

Most T8 wrenches won't work unless you can grind the shaft down to be the same diameter as the driver part.

The teeth matches T8 or T7 but it won't work due to torx shaft is larger than the spring it has to pass. The allen won't bite initially. I have to use a cheap flat precision screwdriver to forcefully try to turn it. This somehow enables allen to bite the teeth and work.
