Fuel Pump Lock Ring Tool

Searched this forum and came up dry. Has anyone bought a fuel pump lock ring removal tool for their GLK?

It looks like the $150 version that's verified to work is similar to cheaper offerings on Amazon.

Expensive: https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_In...001-0007-M1229

"Alternative":
https://www.amazon.com/Removal-Repair-Mercedes-Chrysler-vehicles/dp/B07WLNXXCJ/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=mercedes+fuel+tank+tool&qid=1571714117&s=automotive&sr=1-1 https://www.amazon.com/Removal-Repair-Mercedes-Chrysler-vehicles/dp/B07WLNXXCJ/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=mercedes+fuel+tank+tool&qid=1571714117&s=automotive&sr=1-1

This one even says it's compatible for "W204" vehicles, and since ours is X204, I feel like the C class shares the same lock ring?

Anyones feedback or experience with this would be greatly appreciated.

This looks like a standard tank fuel inlet. Go for the Amazon one, you can always return it. Why do you need it?

You can just use a large screwdriver and a hammer. No need for a special tool.

But, like Bop said, you can always get an Amazon one and return it if its the wrong one.

I'm 99% sure the w204 fuel lock ring is the same as the GLKs, so the Amazon tool should work. I'll report back after I tackle the job. Car has around 190k miles, and I doubt the filter (or pump) have been replaced. I'm thinking of replacing the pump as well while I'm in there for peace of mind.
