That's got the wrong thread pitch on the M12 OD... I'm tapped at 12x1.25mm (same as Subaru lug nuts, which is why I have that tap and die size).

It looks like they've got what I need as well, but it's $40 for the "kit" that includes the locking tab tool and 6 inserts. I wonder if I really need their special tool.

But I'm not 100% sure the ID is an M8. It could be an M10, in which case I'll need the larger M14 OD, which means I'll need another bit and tap to open up the hole even more!
