use a deep well socket, as your adaptor.

i have one but they are a bit of a pain trying to get your fingers in there to fish out the locks. i've got a pen magnet that sorta works, except if you use Titanium locks which i'm sure your not,...it's just tight, that's all there is to it. just improvise like Kevin said. old socket or make up something, forget chasing down the adapter piece, not worth it, it's not the 'be all/end all' tool.

I bought some PVC pipe at home depot to size cut a hole in it so I could get the keys out. and I used a good old fasion valve spring compressor with the PVC as my adaptor worked just fine
When I get home Ill send pics if you want to see it.
