I use a wheel lock removal tool at my shop that i purchased from Snap-On, but you can buy a cheap ebay one to pull it off.

All you do is hammer it on, and use a breaker bar and it'll grab onto the wheel lock. Then go to the dealer and purchase 4 regular lugs. No need for wheel locks, they can't stop a thief.

don't bother with wheel locks.
someone swiped my nut key half way through swapping wheels... shoulda seen my expression when it took less than 2 minutes to remove all 4 locks by a guy at a street corner flat tire shop.
they may make you feel better but are totally useless to prevent theft and can only cause problems

So I am the 4th or 5th owner, and I lost the wheel lock key. I have the VIN and know the original Honda dealer (which is 5 hours away)
Are all the OEM keys different? How can I tell if mine are OEM or Mcguard? Will it work if I call the dealer with the VIN?

OP- just make sure when you're hammering the tool on, don't miss.
