Ok guys, I figured I’d find out what the basics for tools to have around are for working on cars. My dad gets annoyed when I use his tools (mostly because I don’t put them back, oh well my fault) So I’m going to pick up my own set so I can leave the old man alone.
I obviously need the Metric Sockets and wrenches as well as screwdrivers. All that is the easy stuff. What else should be part of every mechanics tool set? Maybe tools Specifically for this car, such as a datalogger or something that would be just amazing to have? (Christmas gifts

)
Anyway, post away what you think would be good things to have around.
