?????Heyco No.29 strain relief fitting pliers?????

[JohnDeere1]

Anyone Ever use these or seen the fittings they are made for they are German so are they for bmw or VW or Mercedes? I found these at my local flea market and thought they were for CV boots or other band pliers.
I doubt I'll ever find a use for these like alot of my tools but this is garage journal after all better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it I guess.

They are for installing or removing Heyco strain relief bushings for electrical cords.

I usually end up using ordinary pliers, which doesn't work nearly as well.

So they are for aftermarket bushings for electrical wires like car stereo equipment and other electrical wires. I will never need these things I'll probably give them to someone that would use them or need them.

AFAIK, the Heyco bushings weren't usually used in automotive, but they are found in all kinds of other electrical equipment for the line cords. They pinch the cable, and you squeeze them down to remove them from the panels when replacing power cords.
