Does anyone have the key / socket to remove the lock lug nut?

Need it before Saturday, yikes!

You'll probably have to buy a standard socket and drive it on the nut. I think I used a 6 sided socket. In the interim you can dab trans fluid on the threaded area to soak to make it move more freely.
I've also used one of the tuner six tab keys and ground some of the tabs off. In my case I left 2 tabs, one at 12 o'clock and one at 6. It worked on 2-3 of the nuts but not one of them.

Most tire shops will have the tools to remove that.

Use a lug nut removal tool.....I've used one for 4 locking lug nuts, and it took each one off without trouble. Easy.

Ok I was looking at those tools yesterday at the local parts store, didn’t seem like it would work but since you had success I’m going to grab it and give it a go.

Since car is wrecked I need to possibly remove wheels and take calipers off to free up wheels to get on a trailer. So taking it to a tire shop isn’t an option.

If you go to almost any tire store , they have a selection of these tools .

like sourmash suggested, get a socket that you'd prolly have no use anymore that fits just snug on there and hammer the socket onto it then use a breaker bar or impact wrench to get it off. prolly toss both the nut and socket afterwards since it'll be a ***** to separate them. I used this technique on locking lug nuts on my jeep which used 19mm and I used a 12 bolt standard that was about the same size that was tight fit but hammered it on to get the nut off.

I used method 2 in the vid below

I reused the same socket on several lug nuts. Once it breaks free leave the lug loose but still in the hub and work the socket off. Just driving the socket on far enough in the first place is key too. Don't drive it home.

I have always welded a nut on the wheel nut.

Works well.

We have two or three Fiero OEM wheel lock keys w lug nuts in the shop but there are like 6 different versions. If you need a wheel lock socket its almost impossible to tell which one might fit without having the car and the keyed sockets in the same place.

Start soaking those lugs in tiny bit of tranny fluid. They are a ***** to get off once they rust up.
