If you are talking about Honda/Acura locks, the dealers have access to the key. I personally had problems wheel locks in the past - broken key - and when I bought my TL, the dealer explained that they have the key for the locks they installed on my car. In fact, all Honda / Acura are able to service your car without using your key. Based on this info, I'm sure you could get another one from them.

Once, i broke my oem wheel lock key. they have a master set I believe at the dealer, so they can remove your locks for sure, I think my dealer did it for free. Now, im not too sure if they will be able to sell you the key, so you might need to buy a new set.

The Acura OEM wheel locks are easy to remove without a key. I believe a 7/8 12 point socket can be hammered onto the wheel lock and then removed with a ratchet or breaker bar.
Then - go buy a better wheel lock set like those gorilla ones.
