Exclamation Re-order Toyota Wheel Lock KEY

Anyone know the address or contact info. to reorder Toyota key for their wheel locks?

It's usually on the card that came with the wheel locks set. I can't find the card that came with mine.

Toyota can remove the locks for me but I need to reorder a key, they don't reorder at the dealership.


Thanks!!

Contact Mc guard, they provide the locks for Toyota/Lexus.

They might ask you to take a picture of the lock, and they can provide the key/lock for you.

Edit: here is the number 716-662-8980

Wouldn't it be cheaper and less trouble to get Toyota to remove the locks, and buy a new set in the parts department? They go for about $40 canadian here...

Update:

I was able to get the locks removed and got the correct code to order a replacement for $14.99.

Not a bad deal, huh.


Thanks agian.

I would contact Mc guard since they handle most of Toyota's wheels and see if they can help, you may have to take a picture of your lugnuts and send it to them.

I remember the cheap shoddy Mc guard key for my L tuned rims was slightly cracked when I bought the car and when I tried taking the wheel off when it was flat the key ended up breaking because the bolts were too over torqued and I could not get the wheel off, the key could not be welded back together. The shop was able to get the locked lug off with the torque gun and I told him to take the other locks off the remaining 3 wheels. I called Mc guard up to get the exact size of the bolt thread (and to tell them their keys suck and are too shoddy and fragile) and just replaced the 4 lock lugs with regular lugs from Autozone as I was not going to pay them for another one of their crappy fragile overpriced lug keys.
