    So, kind of at a loss as to what to do if I ever get a flat. I guess I just didn't think to look for it when I bought the VX.
    Look me up when you get to Moab (I'll be the one with a human skull on top of my spare ), I've got a special socket designed to remove wheel locks & 4 extra lug nuts to replace them with.
    You will have to get a new set of locks though, as the removal socket isn't exactly "gentle" on the chrome finish on the lock nut.
    Also, IMO, McGaard locks are the best I've used. (that's what came with the VX)

    It's a long shot, but when were all together there's a chance that one of the other VX'ers key might fit your lock. I run three sets of locks & two are keyed alike by coincedence, so it does happen.

    A bit off topic, but, I discovered my keyfob will unlock a Rodeo that belongs to someone at the Albertsons. Matching wheel locks are certainly likely as well.
