You search for a Toyota locksmith tool, find a video labelled “TOY43,” and then notice “TOY43AT” stamped on the tool. Which listing should you buy? Start with the complete marking. The missing letters are not something to ignore.
Lockly lists TOY43 and TOY43AT as separate products. We do not claim that one can replace the other. A Toyota badge or a similar-looking tool is not enough to confirm fit.
What our TOY43AT listing covers
The TOY43AT product is a door-and-trunk 2-in-1 pick and decoder. Its listed profile references are TOY43AT, X217 and TR47. The package contains one TOY43AT Dr/Bt tool.
“Dr/Bt” identifies the door and trunk version in this listing. Do not read it as an ignition compatibility claim. Check the lock position as well as the profile when comparing a tool with your service requirement.
What our TOY43 listing covers
Our separate TOY43 listing describes selected older Toyota applications with a matching TOY43 profile. The complete code still matters: the car's age or model name alone cannot establish compatibility, particularly if a cylinder has been replaced.
There is no benefit in choosing the cheaper listing if its specification does not match the lock you are authorised to service.
When a video caption and tool marking disagree
A short caption is useful for finding a video, but it may abbreviate a model name. Pause where the marking is readable, note the full code, then compare it with the written product specification. Keep any suffix and version number.
A demonstration tells you what the pictured tool looks like. It does not show that your cylinder has the same profile, or that every tool sold under a similar title is the same version.
What to check before ordering
- The full model code, including AT or any other suffix.
- The keyway or profile in the cylinder documentation.
- The lock position: door, trunk or another stated application.
- The supplied contents and version on the actual product page.
If those details do not line up, send the product link and the known cylinder information through Contact Us before ordering. A clear model marking is more useful than a general question about “a Toyota tool.”
Compare our TOY43AT door and trunk tool with the separate TOY43 listing, or browse automotive tools. For larger kits, the tool-set buying checklist explains how to compare the included models.
This comparison reflects the products listed by Lockly, not a claim that every manufacturer's version has the same application. Use tools only on vehicles you own or have permission to service.
