| Extra Long Needle Nose Pliers
These extra long (11”) pliers allow you access to the depths of your engine compartment that might have previously required the removal of major components like the intake or exhaust manifold. We couldn’t believe how easy it makes some jobs go that we used to consider “nightmare jobs”. The straight versions will work in most applications, but we have found the offset ones to be particularly useful for removing stubborn heater hoses and flame trap hoses, etc.

| Tackle Trim Removal with the Bone Tool
No, it’s not a tool to use at your local archeological dig sight. It’s a tough nylon tool that’s used to take apart instrument clusters and interior trim. Most of these interior parts of cars are made of plastic and are held in place by clips or snaps. To remove them, you have to get underneath them and pry them off. A screwdriver or a metal prybar is not a good choice for this as metal tools tend to scratch these panels very easily and generally make a big mess.
The bone tool is stiff enough to act as a pry bar but soft enough to leave most plastics unscratched. It has rounded edges and slightly pointed shape that’s just right for doing this type of work. Factory technicians have used them for years.
If you plan on doing any type of interior work on your car then these tools are a must. They also work great for popping off exterior moldings without scratching the paint. They might even be just the thing for that brontosaurus you’re digging up in your back yard!
