Default Re: lost the key to my locking lugs

| Hey all,
|
| I put some 14" rims on my 98 civic, they look nice and all, nuthin too
fancy.
| The guy who sold them to me also gave me a set of locking lugs. Well the
| other night, I had to remove a tire in order to survey some damage to it.
In
| the process, I think I may have left the key to the locking lugs behind
(the
| mosquitos were drivin me nuts!). DAMMIT. So I don't know the
manufacture,
| or the 'code' to the lugs, ruling out the ability to get in touch with the
| manufacturer for a replacement.
|
| So, any ideas how I can get these things off? I think I may just go back
to
| regular lug nuts, in case this happens again someday, but right now i just
| want to get this addressed, I am very nervous driving around without the
| ability to remove my wheels at will....

this happened to me with my acura integra a few years ago. i brought the
car to the acura dealer and they made short work of it. they charged me
$35.
