Depends what year your car is.

Most likely to be Torx, but earlier models had Philips screws.

T15 or T20 Torx i think, possibly T25.

A small set of bits with a driver will usually cost less than £5 from decent factors or national high street reatilers (MotorWorld, Halfords etc)

There are several cunning hidden screws behind the steering wheel,you can get them out,by turning the wheel left then right ,but i found that it was easier to take the steering wheel off.
You will need to use the key, to jiggle the ignition barrel locking pin,put the key in turn it a little bit then push the pin to remove the barrel; this pin is on the top of the barrel just slightly back from the rim; dont forget the wiper wiring block behind ,key barrel it is plugged into the back of the key barrel .then gently pull the barrel out ,easing the wiring along with it untill you can unplug the wires from the back;
take carefull note of the ignition steering lock slide,position and method of assemble ;there is a miniture torc screw on the front side of the barrel that may need to be removed to end up with the barrel in your hand and the security slide with drawn;
