Click-R clips are very difficult to remove without damaging them and almost impossible to reattach without such a tool. This is an inexpensive version of a branded pair of pliers. They work great. Made of thick forged steel, not sheet metal. Lots of padding on the handles. The business end is finished and fits well. The finish is a bit ugly, but that's also due to the expensive ones, after a few times under the hood. The only thing they lack over the expensive ones are rotating jaws, so you have to go straight into the clamp, not from the side.
