Yes, it is a nuisance, since I can't use my impact gun with a lock key. It's a nuisance to have to dig it out every time I rotate the tires (every oil change).

I have 2 sets of locks with keys sitting on the shelf in my garage, removed as soon as I bought the cars. I tried to sell them on eBay but got no bids. Can't even give the stupid things away!

If that's what you consider a nuisance I would love to live a day in your life.

I use my impact gun and never had a problem removing my wheel locks from any of my vehicles? I still don't see what the big deal is even having to remove them by hand but if it's is nuisance for you, that's what it is.

Who want's to buy a set of used wheel locks? I know I wouldn't. New wheel locks aren't exactly a high dollar part. I'm sure if you offered them for free here in the classifieds they would be gone within days.
