Lug Nut Key!

Does anyone have this key I can borrow?
If not, does anyone know where I can get another one?

I lost mine and I dont want to imagine what I would have to do if God forbid I get a flat tire on the road.

Please let me know, thanks in advance.

Well before that, I'd like to see if I can borrow a key or buy it instead.

looks sort of like a kragen/oreillys key, might want to stop by one and see if they have a similar one

If its a dealer original, you will be able to walk in and have them order you one. There is an assortment of keys to match up and order you a new one.

Yeah same thing happend to me if it matches up with a kraken or oriellys then you can do that..., just buy the set use the key if it doesn't work return it if it does work then there you go...

I had this exact same issue with a key that looked almost identical. Oriley's didn't have it and I ended up forcing on two slightly larger sockets. I've sold that car, otherwise I'd help you out.

Edit: my wheel lock shared that exact pattern. Either we have the same kragen setup, or that's from dealer.

I looked around kragen's site and I think its by Dorman. Im gonna go later today to find this pattern, hopefully I find it. If not, I'll just force the thing out with a socket.

Looks exactly like the OEM Subaru Mcgard locks. But I could be wrong.

Most tire shops will have that key. Hate to say it, but there are actually only a few different patterns if it is McGuard, and that's what it looks like.
