The handle looks great. When I did my and wife's rear brakes I simply pried against the outgoing rotor and brakes with a flat bar. Took seconds but when I did my brother's Ford focus recently the little twist job did a fine job though it's low fidelity construction is apparent.

I have a higher end version of the HF pressure kit with a psi gauge that I bought with specific E53 matching master cylinder cap.

Wow, you guys are all fancy.
For pad changes:
2 long screwdrivers or pry bars in an "X".

No I did,t get a clip yet, I have the sensor wired up - and still search my stone driveway for the one I lost.
I was offered one from a member in Canada but It didn't make sense to ask him to send it when I can get a sensor and clip from china for what it would have cost him in postage.

It's steel. Magnet will help a lot. Hot glue will also also non destructive removal option
