Default Lost Key

As I shared previously I got a pre-owned 3LT/Z51 Artic White convertible, as I get familiar with the car I keep discovering "road blocks". I wanted to try on the "Z51 cooling Rings" that came with the car. To my suprise I did not find the key for locking lug nuts the car came with, unless I am not looking in the right area.

So, how does one remove these locking lug nuts or where do I get a duplicate? Thanks in advance.

Most tire stores and dealerships can do this pretty easily, I believe.

Don't feel bad. When I was younger, I lost a quarter key....

You might want to go to discount tire and they can take off locking nuts if u don't have the key for the locking nuts. There are so many different types of locking nuts that u might not find the correct key, just FYI. You might want to check behind the navigation screen too...maybe the previous owner put the locking key there.
