from the dealership... but $$$$$ and they'll have to order it which will take forever...

Maybe on e-bay?

Canadian Tire. The one stop shop :D
I'm pretty sure they dont have those up in the states. But i would try Target, they should have some for cheap.

target, nah not for a valve spring compressor.

i tried using an O2 socket on the ends of the jaws to clear the walls of the head, but the opening in the socket is too small to get even my needle nose in there to hold the keepers on, damn i gotta get this done.
