Spark plug wire tool

Any ideas where can I purchase a tool to crimp this brass post connection pieces ? so far the one I found was $350.00 that is more than the entire wire set by itself. I look here first but no luck.

Cut the 6 new wires to the right length, then take everything to your nearest friendly Porsche or Mercedes Dealer and ask them to crimp it for you; they have the pliers.

Call first to make sure.

The other end is easy, it just cork-screws into the 1k OHM short connector for the cap.
Check the long Beru connectors for the right resistance: 3k OHM (They can fail)
