Methods and tool kits for implanting a lead subcutaneously. Examples include tool kits and methods for establishing first and second subcutaneous tunnels at an angle relative to one another to facilitate introduction of a lead to the subcutaneous space. In an example, a tunneling tool and lead assembly are advanced simultaneously into the subcutaneous space. The tunneling tool may include a curved region configured to transition the tool from the first subcutaneous tunnel to the second subcutaneous tunnel with the use of a single incision.
