Hey guys..

I was browsing the net for a good set of automotive entry tools and came across this, is it any good? Or a waste of money?

They are an excellent set, and I don't think you will find any better tools on the market.

I have always thought it was a tad over priced, but that's the way things go in this business sometimes.

Considering that what you would make with them IF you were doing that sort of work often, the price is justified. From a hobbiest standpoint, I think that you should seriously consider it before buying.

As I said however, they are some of the best tools on the market for what they do, and I feel they are worth the money.

Seeing a pickset like that makes me want to drop out of college and spend my tuition money on it.
Oh god, it'll be years before I can afford that. I suppose it doesn't matter, I don't even know how to work with cars yet anyways.

Take a good hard look at those tools.

You can make every single one of them much cheaper than what they are charging. Assuming you have some of the stuff laying around already.

The big thing is knowing HOW to use them. If you have that knowledge, the tools become much more useful.

I will say this though. Those tools are meant mostly for picking and servicing IGNITION locks.

If all you are interested in is doing lockouts, you simply don't need these tools.
