Default Need Help Removing Door Lock Actuator

Hello,

I'm trying to remove my door lock actuators for my 1997 Mustang v6. I ended up drilling the rivet that holds them to the door hollow just to get that off. Once the actuator was loose from the door, I realized that I didn't have enough space in the door to swing the actuator hook out of its connection joint with the rest of the lock armature. So I decided to remove the latch from the door. It's held by 3 torx screws that are a pain to get loose. I ended up galling one up. I guess I didn't use the right size Torx driver. Does anyone know the size of the Torx screws and in addition an easier way to get the actuator out. It would be a big help before I go and do the passenger side. I'll also have to do my wifes ranger later this week. I love my car but have to admit all the power lock and window features were pretty low quality.

Thanks in advance
