Does anyone have the wheel lock tool

[Mason]

Hello

I’m looking for a anti theft wheel lock piece to take off my stock wheels. I’ll pay for a fair price

Those are normal 1 of several available from what I have seen in the past. So you'd probably need to post a picture of the pattern you need. Also, the dealer should be able to get you one for replacement.

The dealer charges 50$ for the lock set. Should be universal Toyota lock

Pretty sure it doesn't work that way.
Yes, the key and lockset may only be $50, but the keys/locks aren't entirely universal.

For $50 you may get key and lockset 'A'.
If you happen to currently have lockset 'A' on your car, then the key from it will work.
If you happen to have lockset 'E', then it won't work.
No idea how many actual sets there are, but only having one universal version would be a very ineffective lock.

The dealer’s service department should have a master key. Some tire places do too.

Last time I had new tires installed on my wife‘s car I forgot to tell them where the key was. They used a master key to remove the locks.

It's not a single 'Master key', it's a 'Master Set'. Whatever the total # of keys there are for Toyota, they just have one of each. So if there are 20 possible sets, they just have 20 keys and find the right key. Unless you're talking about the true 'Master key' e.g. a 12 point socket hammered on.

That could be the case. The point is that the dealer’s service department should be able to remove the locks.

There's not a master key. I used to work at a Toyota dealership and we had a case that had every single lock pattern that Toyota offers. So if we had to remove a wheel lock on a customer's car and he/she didn't leave the key, we'd have to break out the case and try every one of them until we found one that fit.

Is it likely that a tire shop will have every option? Or some solution for removal

No. If they dont have the key (unlikely) they will take a larger 12 point socket and hammer it onto the lock to remove it, likely destroying the locks and possibly damaging your wheels.

There's 10 different patterns that McGard makes for TMC. Yours could be any one of those, and the only way to tell is to sit there with the master kit and try them until one clicks neatly into place.

Wouldn't it be a BMW kit, not Toyota?

Not sure if it's the same as yours but I have this one.

I mean it looks like that shape yes

Do we have confirmation of any Supra locks differ?
