KB isn't the only one, just the cheapest of the good quality ones with a wrranty. mine is a Mac Tools kit. good stuff, glad i bought it. should come with both the remover and installer.

don't think there's anyway to get one off without damage unless you use the "special tool" mine are from snap on. auto zone has them as a loaner tool.
