Factory lug nut key??

I just purchased a 03 G35c auto about a month ago (always wanted one and finally got one) and a few days ago I got a nail in my tire. Well I went to the trunk to look for the wheel lock key and its missing. Now I took it to the dealership (non-infiniti) and they tell me its an aftermarket locking lug. Did our cars come with aftermarket locking lug nuts? If so, can the dealer order me one? Where else can I find one?

TIA,
Paul

So their factory locking lug nuts...is there anyway i can get them online? I bought the car from a non-infiniti dealer.

also is there a weird place that they put the locking lug nut key? I search the trunk area where the jack is...is there a different location??

thanks!!!
Paul

thats a factory lug key... the dealer should have a master set and be able to take it off for you... but you might have to buy another set... or just take all of them off and replace with normal lugs

You don't need a key...............

Spend about five minutes hitting the lock with freon
then smack it with a hammer and it will explode in
several chunks. At least it won't be a lock anymore.
Living life thru chemistry..........or did you look in
the glovebox for the key?

I don't use my lug key anymore. If you can't find a replacement, let me know and I'll send you mine. What part of the country are you in?
