Default RE: Tool Kit

What I've suggested in the past is go to the dealership and look in their accessory catalog. Pick out the tool kit you prefer, write down what the individual components of the kit are and then go to Sears (for example) and buy the parts at probably half the price. Tie them up in a shop rag and you've made your own kit.

Which one to pick would depend upon your ability to do road side repairs and of course the space allowed by your tool bag.
