Lug nut key replacement

Has anyone heard of an Amcor Replacement Card? There is information on the one that came with my car that I need in order to get a new lug nut key. Dose anyone know where I could get a new card? I did not get the one that came with my car when I bought it.

the card had the information and code numbe to go with the lug locks. it would tell them which notched socket to send you that would match the lugnut locks. with over 1000 different combinations, therre is no way to know which one is the right one for you. to get the locking lugnuts off, take a 3/4" 12point socket and hammer onto the lug locks. then take a breaker bar and turn. it will loosen the lugnut. after loosening. wiggle the socket back and forth to get it off the lugnut. repeat three more times. (one each wheel)

Check inside the spare tire compartment. The card may be attached there. Otherwise you are SOL. You'll have to remove the existing nuts and get a new set and this time keep track of the card. Lon

A tire shop will have a removal key, they charged me $20 to take them off. GM *should* have the master key, but that will cost you more than a tire shop.
