No special technique required, takes about 5 minutes.

That is a far simplier looking tool than I have seen others fab. Others I have seen look more like the OEM tool. A simplier tool that does that job right is even better, mucho props I wish I had the tools to do something like that. I only chose my route because I'm such a damn Mazda nut, but now I'm broke as hell I'll post pics of the tool when I get it.
