What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

I also installed my OEM wheel locks today, but the key doesn't fit in the corresponding place in the trunklid toolkit! So, it goes in the glovebox I suppose. Does anyone have a pic of the wheel lock that belongs in there so I can compare it to mine? Other than that, I have all other spots in the tool kit filled :)

Couple of pics...

I can get a pic of my wheel lock in the toolkit in a few minutes. They are OE. I may have the part number too

You can kinda see in this pic the lock bolt. Better design than other ones I have used because the wrench almost locks onto it when unbolting/bolting and doesn't slide around.

Well I'll be . . . that's pretty cool! Might have to look into that.

Jon, did you paint your grille? I haven't seen anyone paint the whole "blade", just the front edge; it looks great!

Also, had a dream that a few of you guys came to my house to just hang out, but then someone, out of the blue, said " hey, I brought my spare S54; wanna go swap your engine?" Needless to say I was quite disappointed when I realized it was just a dream!

Thanks Stathi.

FYI to all - according to the info I've seen, there are about 20 different OE wheel locks. That is just one of them

edit: here are 4 more versions
