Does anyone use wheel locks on their C5 polished wheels or others? I have always had locks on other cars but cannot find a GM part number. Can onyone help with a GM number or a good accessary number?

I always like to have them also. I bought McGard wheel locks on my C5. I like the quality of McGard. Soory looked for part number but could not find it. Bought them at Pep Boys for around $25. Hope the attached picture works.

Mine also came with my car
but the company that I believe GM ordered from was called
McGard Inc
3875 California Road
Orchard Park, NY 14127-4198

Hope this helps...

The wheel locks and dealer installation stopped with cars built on or about 2/25/02 per a GM bulletin at the time.
