1- Take your car to the dealer and have them tell you the code for your lock (they should do this for free)
2- Call McGard (OE maker of the locks) and order the new part. It should be $14.95

A lot of dealerships do though, the ones I've dealt with have kept a master set in-stock.

Do you have the little card with the Key number on it? All my key locks Ive ever bought came with one, but I never bought a car from the dealer with locks already on it.

Replace it with a regular lug nut. Wheel locks are a waste. You can buy a set of sockets to remove locks. Only deters an unprepared thief, which isn't the majority of them. When someone plans on taking your wheels it's usually because they've been doing their homework.
