The IFixit toolkit is very much an overkill, but I might get it so that I'll have all future screws needed. (And hopefully it is of a better quality than their less pricey competitors)

The majority of Dell laptops use #0 or #00, depending on the system, and screw location. For the SSD it's usually #00 whole the other screws tend to be #0 due to the nature of the M.2 screws making this unavoidable.
However Dell is known to secure the XPS machines externally with T5 or T6 Torx screws but that's where the Torx shenanigans end. They've done it for a while on these XPS laptops.
My recommendation for a laptop like this is to get the 64-bit driver kit so you aren't stuck if my educated guess is wrong.
