Lug Key Broken??

I don't know how somebody does this, but I broke the security key thing for my lugs. How do you get a new one? Is there anything specific about this or can I just find one on ebay or something like that?

go to your dealer service dept, have them match the key, theyn take that number to parts and get one...they are cheap and readily available. all dealers have sets of keys to all the factory locks sent to them in their yearly service contract. they never use customer keys to take wheels off....

Give them a call. They can find out which of the 30 something wheels locks you have and send you another one.
