Good luck, **** at least you have the key, I never got one when I bought my car so when it came time to throw on new tires to replace the dry rotted ones I had no other choice but to break mine off. But now I have ZR1 rims and lifetime warrenty wheel locks so no worries anymore.

Re: HELP! need the lug nut key!!

ya i saw them and almost got them but if you mess them up enough i thought they would get stuck on. and that's no fun. by the way there were 6 pieces of metal in it. one metal screw that was 6" long. construction on campus. It cost me 18 bucks! What happened to the universal 5? Man i'm cheap!!
