Zoinks! Couldn't you just get a set of Bosch Icons and basically have the same thing?

It's a heptagon socket with another key making it "dual phase" or just 2 security features.
The Recaro seats are in as well. Spent the morning putting them in and thankfully everything came out alright. The airbag sensor and seatbelts were easy too.
I'll have more pics of how to do it step by step later on. Here is a quick shot for now...
