Well so much for my coffee break. It kicked in and I felt like working some more.
I broke the thread locker on both axles and pulled the front wheel off.
Removed the front tire and pulled the rim lock out of the rim. It also on further inspection before reinstalling the tire into the rim had a foam pad as well so I pulled that and put it together with the rim lock itself.
Looking closely at the rim lock there is some details on it, even a 2017 patent
I have rubber rim lock plugs from Japan. It is a good 'n tight fit but I got one of them installed into the front tire rim. The plug stick out of the hole and the cap sits inside the rim matching the curved inner profile.
