So having a nice relaxing Saturday morning watching you tube videos I checked out the latest from the Lock Picking Lawyer (one of my favs) He just happened to show how easy it is to pick the TIBBE key using a special tool. Turns out this tool will also give you the key code so you can have one cut. The tool is quite reasonably priced esp. when one considers the alternatives.

 

The problem is that it is for the 6 disc 4 cut while the XJ-S, XJ40, X300, X308 and early X100 use the 8 disc 3 cut TIBBE locks.

You can probably get a the 8 disc version?

 

Yes, they offer the 8 disc for the same price. LPL mentions the 8 cut device in the video

 

he has the 8cut tool. anybody got a spare ignition lock? send it to him in the mail so he can make a video
