Instantiate an instance of OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions then perform keystrokes for the F12 control. This should toggle on/off the developer tools in Chrome, IE, and Firefox.

I would also include a check to see if one of the controls from the devtools is there before toggling this, just to be sure that you don't turn them on instead of off.

c#:

    OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions actions = new OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions([Instance of IWebDriver goes here]);
    actions.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.F12).Perform();
