It's an interior fastener removal tool.

I've purchased the tool at Auto Zone and have seen it at Checker (Kragen) stores as well. If you are buying one, it looks like a phillips screwdriver with a 60 degree bend at the end. There is a flat area at the end, kinda like a foot, that has a slot up the center to go under the head of the rivets. Nice little pry-tool for taking those terrible "Christmas tree" door panel fasteners out too.

If you are careful, a pair of diagonal cutters can be used to get under the center pin on the rivet to lift it. You can then use the diagonal cutters to repeat the lifting on the outer part of the rivet. You just need to be patient and not cut off the heads.

The fascia rivets are pretty "loosey-goosey" and only require a little finesse, since they are holding two plastic parts together.

Regards,

Mike
