Where to get Phillips bit for 60's GM door hinges

Or is there a tool that was made just for this purpose? Right now, I use the big phillips bit from my impact driver set with a ratchet wrench but was hoping there's something more efficient.
Thanks, Chip.

It's a number 4 phillips as I remember. I have one and it works just fine. I use a butterfly impact, I have found that is the best tool for such things.

Phillips bit for GM doors

Try any Snap-on or MAC tool vendor. This is a common tool item they carry. I'll bet many local Auto Parts dealers can get one for you in a day or so.
