Plastic Pry Tools for DIY...... What do you use? Where to buy?

Did a quick search and didn't find much....

There are quite a few threads around here talking about removing trim panels, etc. The YouTube videos I've seen all show the use of specialized plastic pry tools to prevent damage to the dash and trim parts.

Is there a simple set out there (eBay, Amazon) that seems to work particularly well for the MBZ cars and our projects?

I figure that with a decent variety of plastic pry tools and a small assortment of Torx screwdrivers I should be able to do almost anything interior-wise that I want.

I bought a set from Harbor Freight for $6. Usually carry them in the stores. Mine came as a 5-piece kit or something.

I second the Harbor freight recommendation. They have two different kits, a 6 dollar yellow and a 10 dollar blue kit. I liked the shapes of the yellow kit better. They are actually quite nice too. For 6 bucks you can't go wrong.
