No, it's actually a double headed angled screwdriver so that you can tighten or loosen 2 slightly angled screws at the same time. ......





I'm off to tighten my loose screw now.................

Think that's usually sold for detaching door card clips but no reason it can't be used for a number of uses (tacks, panel pins etc. etc.)
Screwdriver........ ah yes. Only those positioned at 45 degrees to the perpendicular axis........... I think !!!!!!!!!!!!

all you need is to tape over the clips then pull the cover off, they release perfectly ok one by one.
But a tool like that is brilliant for ripping other parts of the car apart
