T50 for the doors, T40 for the hard top.

(btw, that is in the manual where it tells you how to remove those things)

Not that anyone reads the silly things. Mine's in the dresser. *L*

I just bought a set of Torx bits, and use whichever one fits!

The manual is over 400+ pages long! I only use it as a reference, which sometimes doesn't really help.

Yeah. I find it useful to open the .pdf version and search on the item I'm interested in. Usually much quicker than the TOC or index. A search on the word "torx" turned up the answer to both of your questions in less than 30 seconds.

There are some thumb screw replacements for the hardtop torx screws that don't require a torx bit and once you take off the door torx'es you don't really need to put them back in.
