Hence the reference in the DIY to the "security" torx screw. That's what that dimple is in the center of the screw.
You don't need the special tip (you can use small vise-grips to grab the shoulder of the screw) but if you want it I'm told that Kragen/Checker/Shucks sells a set for like $5.
Take care and enjoy the ride,
