Free - from me - it's in the toolbox in Texas right now, but when we get back you can have it.

Use a small flathead screw driver. Wrap the tip in cloth and pry away!! If you can't wait until then. Unrelated to this. What year in college do attorneys loose common sense? Inquiring minds want to know!

Craftsman 1/4" flatbladed screwdriver and an old Hanes T shirt. That's what I use :)

Janni, you should really sell it... those things are expensive! I had one disappear at ViperDays a few years ago. :-( Replaced it with a small Craftsman screwdriver, and used a propane torch to get the same bend in the tip.

When removing the centercaps use a piece of electrical tape on the rim so the tool prys against the tape and protects the rim.

I use the end of a wooden clothes pin sanded down a bit. No way it can scratch and easly to replace when it breaks.

M.A.B. paint stores give away a paint can opener that looks exactly the same. Loop type handle and curved tip. works great.

Grrr, I find that using a small flathead screwdriver with cloth coverage gets to be too thick, else the screwdriver pierces the cloth, so that hasn't worked well for me...
