Question Throttle body. How do I change?

I am looking at stopping by the yard to look for a throttle body and simple don't know which tools I would need to remove.
I don't want to carry my entire case would rather just take a handful and be done.

Thanks for the help.

A 10 mm wrench and a flat head screwdriver. If you want to leave the sensors there, then you will need torx safety tip for a screwdriver. I think it could be a t15?

Seriously though? Why not just take in a small tool box?

Sorry didn't find anything really specific for the Monte's... once I found out that you have to get it tuned just the right way, I figured I'd leave it for a future project when I plan on tuning the whole car. Figure I'll save more that way.
