Gets the job done: powder fasteners

The tools are made of fairly soft plastic so as not to scratch them. So if you try to use only the tips of the tools, they will bend and possibly break. The key is to keep working the tool in the crack as you pull the panel out, and to use multiple tools to separate the pieces of the panel as you work around the edge of the panel. With their help I removed my Kia's center console in less than a minute and had absolutely no damage to the hard plastic of the console or the softer plastic of theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • There are problems

A must for all installers!

I install tons of remote starters and other accessories in cars and these tools really come in handy, it should be noted that these tools are a lot more than they look. These tools are great because they are very gentle on the dashboard and will not crack or scratch the dashboard. The only downside I noticed was that all the tools are large and there is no small staple remover in this set. Overall the set is good value and fits great, I recommend this product and the build quality is very good.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Upgrades

Works well not great

First of all the tools are a lot bigger than I thought they would be. I was removing the interior panels from my truck and only needed two of these tools, but this set is so valuable it was cheaper than buying two tools separately. The panel mount pull tool could have used some of the deeper slots. The fasteners that Ford make are very brittle and the tips tend to buckle when pressure is applied. Some even broke off the tips. However, this may not speak so much to the usefulness of the tools as

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Expensive

Do what you need!

I was working on a small project on my '07 Toyota Corolla removing the dashboard, center console etc and these tools came in handy! I only had to use two of the tools in the bundle, but they certainly got the job done. The key is to use some plastic that won't scratch the car's interior console. These tools are strong, durable, and don't feel cheap at all in my hands. However, each of them has its own purpose, so it's important to know what you want to do with your car before settling on one of

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging

Sturdy and flexible - a very useful tool kit

I bought this for a project - to replace the emblem on the bonnet of my BMW. Little did I know how handy these tools would be for my cars and other household chores. I wish I had bought these years ago. I chose this particular set because of the variety of sizes and shapes of tools. I've only used half of it so far, but I know I'm pretty much set for whatever project I end up finding in the future. I was worried about how cheap the plastic would be and that it might break. These tools are madeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • The plastic design of the tools prevents scratches and damage to car paint, leather, chrome etc.
Cons
  • I will add later

I wish I had bought it sooner

For many years I have used various tape pullers to remove interior trim. It works fine, with some scratches from the band movement, some breakages as the screwdriver doesn't have much breaking force, etc. In contrast, I used them to remove the door panels on a 2007 4Runner and they worked GREAT! Larger than the photo shows, they are smooth, slide under the trim, and then easily shape and pry to "pop" out of the latches without damage. It's easy to keep a set of these on hand and I only wish Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • For use on interior and exterior trim strips and fasteners
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Great tools for jobs that require a little finesse!

I am a tool enthusiast and bought these despite reading negative reviews about them being brittle and breaking. These are good quality tools and are thin enough to get into small cracks to lift car trim. You have to use your head and some dexterity with these tools. I see that if you twist hard and only catch on a thin edge, you can break the tools. But that's not the instrument's fault! You must use a thin edge to work the tool far enough for the thicker parts to withstand the pressure of anyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Set of 5 fasteners and strip remover
Cons
  • So far so good
