Early arm rests / door pulls

[Bonzodog]

The early e-types had an arm rest (inherited from the XK150) which was plastic with a padded top. It is fastened using round slotted nuts. I could modify (cut a slot in) a screwdriver to undo them with but does anyone know if there is a correct tool for these and where one might get one?

Sorry, not responding to your query here, but curious to know as from which period did Jaguar start proposing/fitting arm rests.
Could not trace this info so far...

Armrests began to appear in late 3.8 build about 1964.
