I just made my own cluster removal tool out of a tent stake. I just took a couple of large channel-locks and bent about 1/2 inch on the straight end...slightly more than 90 degrees...that is the end to insert into the cluster. The other end is already bent and can be used for gripping your new tool! See attached picure

There are many posts here on how to remove the cluster once you have the tool. Good luck!!

BTW, I used this on my W210's (E300D), however it may also work on other models
