I need a key for this wheel lock. 2022 BS sport big bend.
dealer wants $99 and I think that's crazy. Where can I get it cheaper?

I bought it used not at a ford dealer. They were already on it. I'm assuming they are oem.

I’d call them and send a photo. They will know if it’s theirs and which one of it is.

Did you look in the glove box, center console, under the right rear passenger seat compartment, by the spare tire for the key?

Maybe it was lost, but the previous owner may have hidden it in the vehicle.

See if the dealer would contact the previous owner and ask if they should know where it is.

If you can't find a new key, they can easily be removed with the correct tools. I'd imagine a local tire shop could remove them for you. If you go this route, ask how they would do it, and make sure you don't see any empty beer cans or shine jugs lying around.

When in the biz I probably removed a thousand wheel locks with a air hammer and bit before wheel lock removal kits hit the market.

You can buy a replacement set of Amazon for $25 McGard 24137.

Not OEM. There was no option for locking lug nuts from the factory.

I would check the vehicle. Glove box, center console, door and seat pockets, zippered compartment on back of front seats and spare tire area.

Also check the vehicle for a wheel lock "code card" that might list the manufacturer as well as the lock pattern code. Cheers!

If you can't get a replacement key there are several videos on YouTube that show various removal methods.

35 years ago, I stripped a wheel lock that some kid at Discount Tire had tightened with an impact wrench. I took it back to Discount, and they hammered an impact deep socket onto it and removed it with the impact wrench. Took less than a minute.
