wheel locks install
I just purchased a new 09 C350 which I absolutely love. However when I got home, they didnt have wheel locks. I didnt think of that during the purchase.. if I knew, I would have had them "include" that with my purchase. I called them back and they want $200 to get them installed. And thats the discounted price too 
Anyhow, I ordered a set of RAD's. I've changed lugs before, but not just 1 lug. Would it be safe to just remove 1 lug and install the new lug without lifting the car? If thats okay, I will just do that.
Also, I have a torque wrench, can somebody chime in on the specs I need to torque the lug to?
Thanks!

Yeah, I'm pretty new to this too. I just got my car. I got that part number from somebody else in this forum. Now i"m on to the installation. I just want to see if I can just change out each single lock lug without having to lift the car. I can lift it, but if I dont have too, that would be best.

RLE is right, should be 130nm which is closer to 90 ft lbs. I take off my wheels every month for deep cleaning wheels, wells, and brakes and that's what I set my torque wrench setting to.
