Default Good place to get basic kits?

I just bought a new 35T motor for my Wraith, and found that my mini-bit kit doesn't have a 2.5mm allen bit. This is what I'm assuming is required to pull the motor bolts, since the 2mm is too small and the 3mm is too big.

So, I'm looking for either: A Kit with long handle 1mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, and potentially 3mm allen tips, or just a 2.5mm bit I can use with any old screwdriver with magna style bits.

My local hobby store just got mobbed due to nice weather, and aren't getting tools in any time soon. Umm, I haven't checked harbor freight, but the one here is about the size of a thimble, so they typically aren't much help for this either.

I recently bought a new set of hex drivers, wiha tools #26390 . It comes with .71, .89, 1.27, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 mm hex tools. I found it on ebay for around $40 shipped and the quality is good enough that I bought two sets of wiha nut drivers and a micro screwdriver set also.

It's worth it to spend money on nice hex drivers, my Hudy bits have gotten me out of a few frustrating situations. I also like to have less expensive drivers around for general wrenching and have found the masterforce brand from menards works pretty well. You might be able to pick some up when waiting for shipping.
