Wheek Lock Key

So I managed to leave my wheel lock key on the lug and it flew off during a drive. Is there a place I can order a new key online, or do I have to go to a dealer for one?

This place is a joke.

Assuming you have genuine MB wheel locks, you'll have to take it to the dealer. They should have a master set and can match up the proper pattern key and order you a replacement.

I've lost mine before, what I did was find a socket that almost fit and then hammer it on, and then you can get it off.

Not knowing if I had factory or aftermarket locks on the car (third owner), I decided to dig around the side of the road further and with some luck I was able to find it in the ditch.
