Well it's metal and the same color as the original and can remove OEM nuts. But that's only half of what it's designed for. The other half is for inserting the extension that controls the bottle jack. In addition, it has the wrong size and shape of the opening. I tried it and it didn't work. Well, fast forward a few weeks since I bought it. The previous owner of my Ridgeline wrote me that he found the key that came with the truck. It has the correct opening, so the problem is solved for me. So if you find you need this part, I recommend you just go to the dealer and pay an extra fee for it.
