Gearwrench triple square 12 PT socket set

Well I ordered the Gear wrench (triple square) 12pt 5 pc socket set to remove the head bolts from my OMG617 and they worked great. $25 for the whole set. It covers most Early and late model Mercedes, VW and BMW head bolts. Delivered it was less than 30 bucks off Fleabay. Both 1/2 and 3/8 drive sockets. Stood up to my 36" breaker NP.

Hey Matt,
Does OMG = Oh My God ???
OM 617 is probably what you are talking about.

3/8 drive normally doesnt take the load well.
Hope you work on the car goes well !!

Ya it's more like OMG I'm working on this thing again. The 12 MM socket is 1/2 and well as the 10. The others are 3/8. It's held up well.
