Porsche Tool needed for 964 front end alignment?

Took my 964 in today for a 4 wheel alignment. The rear camber and toe-in alignment went smoothly. When he started on the front end alignment the computer screen showed a Factory Porsche tool that was used when adjusting the camber. The mechanic left this adjustment alone(both sides were out of spec on camber). Does anyone know of this tool and can the front camber be aligned without it? Thanks Bill

Yes, this tool is needed to set camber

I had the same issue with my alignment last week and ordered this from Pelican on Monday. You are luckier than me because the alignment guys broke one of my rear toe camber eccentric bolts while trying to loosen them so I had to order that too.

The tool from Porsche direct is $270!?!?!?! Thank you Pelican for real world pricing!

Bill/Tyson/ Mike. Does the tool part number 9265/1 in the picture above also need to be used? Don't see this tool listed here at Pelican. From the picture Bill posted above it looks to me similar to a fixed ratchet head with a 10mm allen tool extension. Am I way off base here. Thanks Bill

No, that's just a metric hex
