Default HELP! Locking LUGS?

I'm getting ready to paint my calipers and I have a lug that has grooves in it that I cannot remove with a standard socket...obviously a locking lug...where is the key for this? How can I get my wheel off? I did a search but I didn't find anything... :confused: :confused:

Look in the hatch area under the middle and left hand side storage tubs. There is a molded area in the carpet where it should be seated. Thanks where I found mine.
