I was just curious...Does anybody know if this was done in only certain dealerships?

Re: How to take seat locks and wheel locks off

i don't think thats a dealer thing. i remember a company that sold a bracket that bolted to the seat mount and blocked the radio in to prevent theft.it was key removable for driving.btw a correct size standard or metric 1/2"12 point socket driven on will remove most wheel locks.

Re: How to take seat locks and wheel locks off

yup a regular socket would work but i always damage them whenever i do it that way..

if it wasnt from the dealer then it had to be from the factory...i even remember where we kept the wheel lock keys at the dealership for whenever a customer used to come in with that complaint lol
