To have the right tool is worth $8 in my opinion...the PN is 140 589 02 33 00. If you want to take the time to make a tool that might or might not work right nobody will stop you...just pointing out that for $8-$10 you can have the cluster out in 30 seconds.

They can be very stubborn the first time out especially, and if you make a tool out of a coat hanger it probably will bend before it pulls the cluster out. The proper tool is harded wire that retains its bend and has a nice handle to grip it...couldn't be easier.
