can duplicate with heavy coathanger material. Works better if you put the
little taper on them you barely can see in the pix. Those are for the
older style radios with round holes in each corner. The tools with the
finger hoops are for newer radios that need a thin blade slid in at the
sides to release. All of these work by taking little forks out of retainer
holes so the radio can be pulled out. The ones with finger holes let you
use the tools to pull the radio.
