not sure where we got mine. I'm pretty sure SEARS would have it.

It looks just like a mini pry bar with a screwdriver handle.

that should work fine i just used a heat gun and pulled up slowly took a while. best bet is to use fishing line. then getting the left over off is a bitch, goo gone or hours of working it off with alcohol.
