Auto Trim Removal Tool, Phyles 14 Pieces Door Panel Removal Tools for Dash Center Console Installation and Remover

Worked really well

Overall: Nice solid tools, with plenty of choice.Disclaimer:I generally don't know what I'm doing. Honestly, I really don't. I am not a car mechanic or a detailer. However! I have actually used tools like these before so I do have something to compare them too. If you are in the same situation, hopefully this helps you and sets your mind at ease.First Impressions:They arrived in a plain box with not much presentation - but these aren't really something you'd gift to someone. All pieces were there with none missing or duplicated. They seem as strong, tough and durable as ones I have used before.Design:• I bought these to help fit a dashcam I've just bought - the tools are great at tucking the long wires away, and also useful in fishing the wire out from tight places.• I also take some bits of trim off to wrap with vinyl wrap and again, these are just what you need.• I thought that I would only use about three pieces, but thought it prudent to get the largest kit, since it was cheap anyway. Having said that, there are some pieces in here that are going to be very useful (ones on the bottom row of the picture are chamfered edged and therefore perfect for tucking vinyl wrap).• I'm not a massive fan of the colour. The ones I've used before were blue, and a little bit more palatable. But given the price, beggars cant be choosers!Use:So from the off, these are nice and tough. I made sure nice and early to "test" them - mainly the largest one since I've snapped one of those before. They're strong and tough. Also, like I said, given the sharp edges to some of them, they are perfect for getting into tight gaps - just use a cloth if you're going near the car paint just in case.Longevity:The biggest worry is them snapping. I've already tried somewhat, but they could still break I suppose. Using the one best suited to the job will help. Regardless, and as always, if they fall short and fail or break then I'll come back and update this review.

They do flex a little too much but still a great selection of sizes and for the money

This trim removal tool was used by me (I'm not a mechanic) and they work well and don't leave tool marks on the trim. I looked on line to find out he best way to replace a faulty rear N/s passenger door mechanism on a BMW E90 2006 saloon. The actual faulty part it turns out chews up a nylon gear wheel inside the door lock mechanism and is a common fault on these BMW models apparently. This lock mech is approximately 60cm x 60 cm made of nylon black plastic and the thickness of a BMW door it works electrically of the fob and obviously is fitted behind the trim. I can only speculate at the high cost BMW would charge to supply and fit this door lock as a new item. Even looking at the part it looks expensive. I managed to get a S/H replacement on line for £29.00. So the whole job -now I m at home re the CV 19 restrictions- plus cost of the panel removal tools cost about £40 in total. excluding my time. The tools worked well but you need to look on line -there's plenty of info-to see how to do it. The door panel which is a press fit with nylon peg and friction fasten holes came off quite easily with these tools. It probably took me as a practical novice about 4-5hrs over two sunny days start to finish with a suitable sit down chair to sit on and cups of tea including checking on line instructions.Door looks and works like new too!

Comprehensive set of trim tools, save pounds doing my own repairs, strong well made

I used these tools to hide the wiring of a front and rear mini dash cam - which is stuck on the windscreen behind the driver’s mirror - and on the rear screen. I’d previously fitted a SatNav, and concealed its wiring, from the 12v socket to the right side of the windscreen using a combination of flathead screw driver and pointed vegetable knife - not without risk to the trim….or my fingers! But with these tools (I didn’t use all of them) I was able to discretely hide all the dash cam’s wiring above the mirror, round the top of the screen, down the sides, and all the way along the bottom edge under the doors, to the hatch back.They came packed in a plain cardboard box, which fits nicely in the glove box, or in the under seat tray, where they are handy to use quickly. They could also be kept in a small drawstring bag. It would be handy if one was supplied. There is a plug-like connector bit on the rear dash cam cabling which the dogs sometimes knock, pulling the wiring out of the trim so, these strong sturdy plastic tools which do not bend as they are well shaped, continue to be an absolute boon. They certainly save the cost of having these gadgets professionally fitted, and do just as good a job. I have found uses for the tools in the house too. I just wish I’d had them sooner.

I use these products for getting a door trim off a car. However the red Plastics are very bendy and not very strong and one broke. They do not give the torque for getting the door clips out of the door . The only really good part is the metal claw which is quite long. HoweverI would not buy these again.
