Default re: Trim removal toolkit

I've noticed that Honda has these "tools" for removing trim pieces without scratching, etc. Has anyone purchased these tools? or do you make do with a screwdriver.... if it isn't too expensive, might be nice to have these tools to make trim removal faster and less damaging.

The tools are (from the service manual):

"KTC" Trim Tool Set (SOJATP2014)
Snap-on Trim Pad Remover (A 177A)

I picked up a tab remover from one of the discount places (Kragen) and it does the job just fine. About $6.00

The KTC set is great for removing interior plastic without breaking it. I believe the set was around 30-40$.

The KTC set is all plastic. It reduces the chances of scratching other plastic panels.
