does anyone know if the E-5 torx socket is the correct socket to remove the ABS module on my 2000 s70?

Yes, it is.

You can get away with a 5/32 or 4mm if your bolt heads aren't corroded.

You should have O'Reilly Auto Parts in STL. They normally don't stock the E-5 socket but they can normally have a Lisle socket (PN 26770) on the counter within an hour after you call them. It is a 1/4" drive socket and it only costs a couple of bucks.

I got a set at a typical auto products outlet / store.
You can't see below so I wanted to be assured I'd not strip the bolt head. It is a thin thing and seems like you can wear the edges easily without wanting to.

I used an E5 1/4" socket and a 1/4" socket to hex adapter (to use sockets with removable bit screwdrivers) and a 1/4" closed end wrench. That JUST barely fit and I was lucky enough that the bolts only needed to break loose and they came out easy.
