...is an E20 torx socket, 1/2 inch drive, and a big-ass breaker bar. I wish you luck finding one on a Sunday if you don't have one already. :( I wasn't prepared to run into an E20 bolt when I did mine. With my car on jackstands I called everywhere and finally had to break down and call my independent Saab guy and ask if I could borrow his for the afternoon. Thankfully he had no problem with that and I was able to finish that day. They put Loctite on the caliper bolts from the factory and it takes quite a bit of torque to break them free. Other than that it's not a difficult job. Except for that #&*#ing retainer spring/clip, haha. Just be patient with it.
