Vise grips
Scott, you've got a couple of options. If they are Toyota's wheel locks you can pick up a new master key socket at the dealership. If they are aftermarket ones then go to a tire shop, they have a tool that can spin them off. You will however need to replace them with stock lug nuts or buy another set of wheel locks.

Tear out your entire interior until you find it!

Seriously that will work? Never thought you would be able get enough grip with them to untorque (even a word?) a lug nut, go figure.
Giulitto said:It has worked, but will not in this scenario due to the depth of the lugs into the wheel.
