At my wits end. No wheel lock key.
A good hammer and chisel will do it.. those wheel locks are only so strong... ive broken a few just by over tightening 'em. JUsst put the end of the chisel on the lock and hammer it.. i would def be careful near the rim not to damage it.. the removal kits would likely to be much safer.. but if you dont have enough clearance, you might have to take up my suggestion.
Yea right............!

find a socket that will just barely fit over the lock.......carefully hammer it
on and go to work. This happned a few weeks ago to me....located a '85
Vet with 20K miles on the clock and no key to wheel locks.....no one in town had
anything that would match so we went with the socket and removed the
wheels. Don't forget to buy new locks......haha
Hopefully the overall diameter on these units is not too fat to fit in the lug nut well on your wheels.
