Do these tools normally come with pictures of what kind of panels / panel joints each tool should be used for and how?
If so, I can hold off on getting the PCX manual (expensive as I'd have to pay Helm, the manual company to ship to Japan).
In fact I am not sure whether the manual itself would show which panel tools are best for each panel, would it?
Some have said 'a warm pair of hands on a warm day is enough', but I am not keen on cracking any panels ;)
Hopefully I can get these easily enough from Yahoo Auctions Japan, Amazon.jp, or Rakuten Japan.

Thank you.

The set I have is the same and did Not come with instructions on which tool to use on which connection. We have to wonder, How could they possibly know? :roll: Lots of fairings and clips out there to be removed. All shapes and sizes in different locations and on different vehicles.

We just have to forge ahead, and (maybe?) learn the hard way. Then hopefully do it right from there on. Yep, I've snapped a few tabs too starting with my 2011 model.
Have confidence. Good luck!
