Default Where to get Tamper Proof Bits

I am trying to pull out a deployed airbag, but its held in place with tamper proof bolts (star shape with a post in the middle), so i need a tamper proof bit (star shape with a hole in the middle). I see you can order them online, but does anyone know of a store that carries them, one where I could just walk in and get one. I'd like to do this project tomarrow, so I dont want to wait around for the item to get shipped.
