Might look into ball hex vs universal but vim makes nice 1/4 3/8 sunex makes some but be careful because hex,torx and triple square are easily rounded by universals

This is why I prefer straight bits

This was for VW but I got passed it without but next time will be easier with sutch a socket.

How did yo get passed it then? What did you use?

An alternative is to use a Ko-ken Zeal 1/4 drive universal joint with their Zeal hex bit socket. Both peices are dimensioned with compactness in mind. When putting the two peices together, it won't be that much of a difference in overal. length. I'm not a fan of using full-articulating universal/swivel sockets compared to the low-angle universal/swivel joints from Ko-ken's Zeal lineup, or even Nepros' "ground-cross" universal. They are so much more user-friendly.
