I purchased my dash pullers from a dealer 20 years ago and paid under $20
for the set.  They are amazingly handy.

Possibly.

The wires for the upholstery are quite thick and very strong.  I was surprised 
at how easily the hook would pull them, which requires a lot of force, without 
bending or breaking.

force you can exert with them goes far beyond what I’ve ever been able to do

I used one of them to recover and hook the throttle spring on the 400E’s
