2004 cl locking lug bolts

hi, i've got a bug up my behind and decided that locking lug bolts would be a good investment. anyone know the size and length i need. i have 18" amg stock wheels on a 2004 cl600 sport package, staggerred wheels. all the info i've gotten has got me more confused. i also believe we need ball seat bolts. is that correct. dealer wants $95. have seen some on ebay as low as $17. any input is greatly appreciated.
thanks

Make sure you have the wheel and VIN number. They have real MB parts at wonderful prices. If the part isn't listed call them.

When I ordered and received the above described wheel locks from my MB dealer I found out that, in fact they were the "McGard" brand locks. I did purchase an additional key using the included order instructions.
