Default Lug Nut Wrench

Are the locking lug nut adapter universal or are they only for your car. I went to look for mine to take the wheel off and much to my dismay it's missing...Thank you...

They aren't universal. Do you have the complete original owners delivery portfolio? A GM dealer service department would have had a set of masters BUT through the years they've likely become missing. Some actually maintain them so it might be worth a "drive by" to ask. If you feel it's original a duplicate can usually be purchased with a very good snapshot to ID it. If you're not concerned about theft replacing with standard nuts is certainly maybe less expensive. It's generally not difficult either. Were the standard wheel nuts easily loosened or didn't you attempt? That might be an indicator of how easily yours could be to remove.

My '90 has a sticker on the driver's side door identifying the lock by number. It's near the bottom and silver in color.
