Got some inspiration from the chrisfix video, so credit to him I guess. But thought I'd make a thread here of the tools I found to be unique, useful and interesting. Links are all to the US amazon. Good for Christmas if you're still looking for ideas.

Nut/Bolt Extractor Socket Set - A curved tooth socket which you can hammer on to a rounded, stubborn nut or bolt to free it up.
Amazon


Nut breaker - Using a ratchet to push the sharp edge into the nut either side, it will crack it off without damaging threads.
Amazon


Vampliers - Pliers with a grip designed to turn stubborn nuts/bolts.
Amazon


Under bonnet/hood lamp - Battery powered lamp which secures to all bonnet typed with adjustable bonnet grip
Amazon


If you have any more cool car related gifts, post them below. I might buy them myself.

Don't forget those extra 10mm sockets, damn things always go missing. Everyone needs a few extras

You should always throw in top of the line bundles of car cleaning products from interior cleaning to soap and wax

Great write up. I have 90% of these due to my last job working at a dealership.
