I use T15, T20 and T25 the most.
This is the kit I have; http://www.sears.com...7&blockType=G17. It works for all the interior stuff.
I also have a 9 piece torx socket set for anything under the hood.

My 2¢, get bits not ones that have set lengths, there are some torx (say by the cig light for example) that would be a major PITA if you had a 10 inch long screw driver type torx that you can't fit in there. I'm sure some will say that thy have never had an issue, but I think it's much easier. I bought my set of torx at napa btw
