Hello, I broke my sotck locking nut key and the registration card that comes with it... so i cant get a replacement... i really wanna get my wheels off so i can paint my calipers.

So, im taking a chance and giving u my code from my broken key.

Mc Gard no.4.664.000

Please compare this number to urs, ill pay for a new set of locking nuts for u and ill buy this Key from you too.

Thankyou!

Paul

Hi Paul,

Mine too is the same number. I thought I was pretty lucky with so many numbers, I should buy a lottery ticket. That's when I realized this number is only the patent number, and is printed on all the keys they make.....

The real number in fact is on my card; it is a 5 digit serial number followed by a 6 digit serial number.

They say on the card that if you already registered with them (which I did when I got my new car), you would be able to get a replacement key, because they would have already your ID with them. Then just need to call their tool free no 1-800-444-5847 and tell them you're already registered, cost for a key is $10.

I you haven't registered and lost your card, too bad I guess. My card resides in my car purchase documentation in my filing cabinet, away from the car....

Good luck.
