Save yourself the time and effort and get a push pin removal tool. They are not expensive and alot of the time you can reuse the pin. Always have some extra  8mm pins around though.

Yep, bought the same set myself. Actually keep it in the glove box.

Where did you get the tool at and what was the cost?

OBTW is my thread still showing up wonky?

I got mine at Harbor Fraight..about 10 bucks. And your posts look normal now. What was it?

Amazon here. They had the push pins so I ordered them at the same time. I think total was under  $30

I hit the one that looks like screwdriver.  I was very hard to use.  I will be ordering this one for sure.

I'm new to this machine so what has push pins that you need to remove?

Some folks call them plastic rivets. They hold together dang near your entire machine.. fenders, air breather etc.

Harbor freight has the push-pin tool for like 10 bucks. There's a thread on them here somewhere.

If you order the pliers, order some 8mm push pins too. Look at what's on your machine first so you can match them. Some pins have a big head on them and they can be a bit harder to remove.

Ohhhhhhh gotcha! I use a special tool I made out of a narrow scraper. Just notched a v in it... that tool would work better though.. 

Got mine at harbor freight. Works great
