I can get the key for you. I lost mine before as well so I know the ins and outs of it.

Please call or pm me and I can get you taken care of.

From working on a lot of evo's and having customers forget their keys at home, I've learned it takes much less work than you described above, to remove most "locking" lug nuts. Heh, if they wanted them that badly, they'd prolly just take the whole car.

Park your car in as safe a place as possible, insure what you can, and try not to stress about things you can't control.

Life's too short,

JW-> lockless, after realizing most locks are more trouble than they're worth

I lost mine and I really needed to take the rims off to swap tires! I didn't have the time to wait for a new key because there was a huge snow storm coming and I needed to have the snow tires on. I ended up taking it to a shop and they broke them off and replaced them with new wheel locks. Kind of a pain in the ***!
