That will make the job of removing the gearbox so much easier, no more broken brown fingers worries, would you rent it out ?

...nah, the chocolate fingers would have shattered no matter what tool was used ::) , parts of the fingers were dropping off into the motor mount before I even started dismantling the c5 for restoration.

The genuine tools are fab, especially like the way you can get at the headstock and steering bearings without having to remove the bodyshell.

Given the amount of work and materials involved in making that, they're going for a good price mate :)
