    I used a harclip with the ends cut off and it worked perfectly!!

    It cost more than the paperclip I tried originally but was much better.

    This just needs a small 'glasses' screwdriver to push the tab in - done the same in the last 2-3 weeks.

    those durite terminal things are useless, dont work at all on any vag connectors. the laser one is the type you need. I bought a similar one off ebay but it wasnt quite right i had to bend the tips to make it work like so:

    I can't get on with any terminal removal tools, they're all crap.

    The absolute BEST thing you can do for removing terminals is to get some of those metal inserts that go in wiper blades, cut them into decent sized lengths (4-5 inches) & grind down the ends. I've got 4 double ended for all types of plugs from those little d!ck hair holes on the mini terminals to massive holes on mk2 light connector.

    Cost's nothing & you can customize them to fit exactly!

    What he said, my electrical tool box is also awash with those wiper blade things!
