cam seals tool?
I'm in the middle of doing my timing belt/water pump on my 98.5 30v A4 and figured i should do the cam seals at the same time. The bently manual says to use a special tool (i forget the #) to get the old seals out and to put the new ones in. Is it possible to do it with out the tool? The tool is $200+. Or does anybody in the northern NJ/NYC area have one i could borrow? Thanks in advance.

I use a little bit of wheel bearing grease on the inner portion of the seal
and a hub socket to tap it in with. To get them out I use a radiator hose removal tool, works great.
