LOL, just awake early here in not-so-sunny California. You can get them from the dealer, or call Phil at Fastlane.

From the Varshney SEC site:

Quote:

...You can make your own version of this using a metal hanger. Be sure to leave a 1/4" tip with about a 70-90 degree bend. Start with the the right hand side of the cluster. Insert the tool with the "hook" parallel to the side of the dash and push it in all the way. Then turn the hook to "engage" the hook with the back of the cluster.

Used this homemade tool with success. No need for the special tool, IMO.
