Your going to need a special tool to remove those screws.
Go to your local hardware store.
"tamper resistant torxs bit" is the name I believe.

Just for future reference, torx and "tamper proof" torx are different.
The tamper proof bits have the center hole.
The tamper proof screws/bolts have that metal "nipple" in the center to keep flat head screwdrivers(and the such) from being used.
Usually used on ignitions, airbags, ect.
Places where theft deterrent is needed.
