HELP!! Cant get wheel lock off!!

hey i was wondering if the wheel locks are the same the ones that they give you from honda, because i think the lock i have is too rounded off by now that it wont grab hard.

i mean i put the wheel lock on the lug and it grabs but *** soon as i try to take the lug nut off it slips , so i cant take it off and if any 7thgen member by paterson that is reading this right now and has a wheel lock i can borrow from the real quick i would be greatly appreciated. my number is 973-725-7765...

The McGards (sp?) is coded so each lug and key combination is different. There should be a sheet included with the coded #s and a way to order replacement keys or lugs.

I bought a set for my fat fives, I have only done a couple of tire rotations, looks like I may need to keep a close eye on them though.

1. Don't post your phone number on the internet
2. If they're honda locks, go to the dealer and get them to pop them off.
3. There's many patterns of keys. Mcgard makes the locks, Honda raises the price and sells them. You'll need the serial number to get a new key.
