Default Wire Removal tool

I know I saw this somewhere but can't find where anymore. I am looking for the little tool that you use to pop the factory wires out of their harnesses. I think my existing wires are long enough to put mini apes on so I want to pull the wires out and route them through the bars. anybody know where I can get one of these little tools or something else that might work instead?

The Molex connectors don't really need a special tool. I used a Craftsman pick set I've already got but anything fine-pointed like a sewing needle can be used to release the pins.

Yep, that's what I've been using. You can pick up a set of the cheapy one's at like Harbor Freight.
If you break one, move on to the next one. I've had to file one down skinnier to use it.

I'll admit it though, I wouldn't mind having a set of good, real tools for the connectors.
