Glad you found one!

When I bought it a decade or two ago now, the cost of the tool was a wash vs. having a local independent shop do the work on my own car.  It's been used on literally dozens of 928's at clinics in my home workshop above Los Angeles, plus a L.A. area Jaguar club for their clinics.  It's well travelled too, but had trouble finding its way home a couple times.  It's been sitting for several years now since it was last returned with the case damaged.  

For those playing along at home, there are other options these days that aren't quite as elegant as the B90 kit, but for fewer $$ will get the job done.  A local shop here in Oregon uses a similar Harbor Freight kit plus a large slide hammer.  Good to do maybe one or two cars, which is most of what individual 928 owners face these days.  After watching them use that method, I'm pretty sure I'd rather use the B90, and just let the tool do all the work without the slide-hammering.  I also confess that I'm a tool-a-holic, and have no issues buying the right tool for a job or project if there's even the slightest chance it will make things easier.
