I have two chrome non stock roof panel locking screws that I recently broke the key to take them out. I'm going to just replace them with stock screws. If anybody has an idea on who made the key please let me know.

I didn't have a key for mine, so I found a Torx T40 "screwdriver" and it worked fine. You can buy those ratchet drivers with the correct bit from Mid America or Ecklers. You might even put it together at your local auto parts shop for a lot less Wink


Remember, there's no place like ~ ;)

I didn't know anyone made "locking" screws for the roof panel. Without having a clue as to who made them, I don't have any ideas for obtaining a replacement key. Are they similar to Mcguard wheel locks?

Good luck. Glad it isn't my car. Sounds like a real PITA.
