IMO, just do the tool.
Got an old PC lying around? I hear that I/O slot covers make a usable tool.
Mine is made from an old hacksaw blade (so perhaps 1/2" wide). I heated it
with a propane torch to bend a right angle, then cut the end off about 1/4"
away from the bend. Ground the teeth off and wrapped some plastic (electrical)
tape around it to protect the cars finish.
