You should able to find it in the trunk, tool tray under the mats.

Hope this helps,

Yep, check in the tool trey where your spare tire is located. If you did not know it was there, the dealer where you purchased the GS didn't do there job as they should.

yup, if you can't find that little leather case that your lock fits nicely inside, MAKE THEM GIVE YOU A NEW SET WITH A CORRESPONGING WHEEL LOCK FOR FREE.

Better yet, have the dealer replace them with regular lugs. I did. Wheel locks on factory wheels are more trouble than they are worth. No one steals factory wheels anymore.

I had this happen, and I thought it was missing ... it had somehow fallen out of the tray and was down around the spare tire well somewhere. Take everything out and look around with a flashlight, in all likelihood it's there somewhere.
