WTB - 986 Cam holder/alignment tools

If anyone wants to sell me their cam holder/alignment tools, let me know!

It looks like I can get a decent set online starting at $250.

If you have a set that you're not using and would like to sell for less than that give me a shout. Thanks!

So far I've had no luck locating one to borrow in my area.

I'm replacing the variocam chain pads.

No reply yet, so I'll probably just get the tools, I saw a decent looking set on Ebay for $216.

I finally found a new set of tools that looks decent online for $100 plus shipping. I'm going to do that, it will save time vs. making a set. And it includes all 3 tools. (alignment tool, and the holder tools, plus some others).
