Default WTB Center Lock Tools
Looking for a 997 center lock socket and a center lock wheel alignment tool (the one that's probably in your girl friends drawer!) If you can't pry it from her oily fingers then an accurate diameter measurement would suffice and I'll machine one myself (the length I can come up with myself).

Thanks Ed (SmokinGTS), you make a fine alignment tool and the thread protecting cap is a nice feature.

Reminds me of Homer's gift to Marge, a bowling ball with "homer" written on it!

$50 from the dealer. And they have to order it most likely. I lost mine a few months ago. There's something like 30 different keys so they have to figure out which one.
