Yeah that doesn't look like the right wheel lock, the OEM set part number is MZ312853, I just got a set for 12 bucks shipped, look for them on ebay.

That is definitely not the OEM lock that everyone else is running around with. I do not recommend using that.

Use the stock lugs for your stock wheels. When you get a nice aftermaket wheel on there then use the McGards.

Um. I don't have any aftermarket lugs on my stock wheels. Read the OP.
