Can someone tell me where I put my locking lug nut keys?

[Moparfiend]

Zip tied to the spare tire.

No spare but good idea for when I do find them!

In the same drawer as the screwdrivers..... And socks, yeah, thats the ticket... The drawer with the screwdrivers & socks....

Welp unless I have some code but not sure I can order the right key.

You know where you got them and the manufacturer is so call them and tell them you need a master key. The manufacturer always has a master key that fits all locks. If nothing else take a picture and take it to where you got them maybe they can match it up.

I have a empty gun safe sitting in the basement. Bought it, put one key inside, one key in a saf3 place. Yup...
Fortunately I have the keys for the five full gun safes.
On a related note; I’ve bought several parts cars over the years with locking lug nuts and no keys. I have a nut splitter that cracks them quick. If I use my air impact gun on the splitter it’ll do a nut in a few seconds.

In your night stand, second drawer, underneath the Hemmings Motor News.

I can relate, twice! I made myself a beautiful set of billet 6061 rocker shaft stands for my iron max heads. Now that the heads are back from IMM, i sure wish i knew where i put them,
And, when i got my old camaro back after it was stolen, (long story, but bought it from a lifelong friend, so she could buy her new camaro) the wheel locks key didnt come back with it. Luckily the ends of the locks were open, and a custom formed e-z-out got em off.

How about in the deep freeze next to the ball joints you were going to install one day?

Well when you stop looking and keep working is when you find things sure enough.....hiding safe and sound in the back of the air tool drawer lol. Nice and safe!

Look for something else and you will run across them.

 

[Chargered]

Because I am the only who misplaces his **** and then spends more time looking for it than the job itself. Nobody can relate.....

No, your not the only one. I have the same issue. I made a very long list of all of my passwords for everything, including all financial stuff. Then hid it somewhere in the house. Have no idea where the hell its at now.

Lol did you look in your file cabinet under top secret?

 

[Lazerwolf]

Well, the way I always find things like this, after getting irritated about it, is to buy another one. Then when I put the second one "in a safe place I won't forget", I usually find the first one since it's right there. Just too dang old to remember next time I need it.

Take the locking lugs off and throw all of it away. If you need them you need a new address

Ron ... you need to continue to look in a least 1 additional place. You never want to find something in the last place that you looked ... BAD KARMA!

 

[Speedbird]

Yep.
Safe places eat things.
Stop looking and you will find it....someday.
It's always in the last place you look because after you find it, you stop looking.
Has anyone besides me ever heard : "A place for everything and everything in it's place"?
Mamma ways said that.

 

[HEMI-ITIS]

I'm sorry to tell you they are a waste of time and might slow down pros by a few seconds.I have picked up many brand new cars new cars with all 4 wheels stolen.The lugs & locks were on the pavement
I have to go to the dealership and get 4 wheels even if they are space savers and install before transport.

The locking lugs are only like 5 different keys for current aftermarket sets there not hard to get replacement sockets can you post a picture of your lock . I've gotten a bunch off with 15/16 12 point sockets
I used to work at a custom wheel shop
