No tool needed, simply raise the car so that the springs are relaxed and you can turn the adjuster rings by hand (as long as nobody overtightened the setscrews).

if you need something, a drift punch or a small Phillips screwdriver will do it.
If none of the above options work, Breeze has a spanner for Konis: https://www.breezeautomotive.com/sho...ng-adjustment/
Koni sells a spanner for their shocks. It's P/N 7029170080. IIRC, it's like $18.

I guess I should clarify which Koni shocks I'm referring to. I have the silver double-adjustable Koni's and the wrench I mentioned works perfectly on those.
