Hi everyone.

I just bought a nice used 2007 Accord EX-L yesterday and come to find out it is missing the scissor jack and lug wrench so I started looking on eBay for one. Do different years have different jacks? I assume they do from the ones I see on eBay but I wanted to make sure.
Also, the car has a locking lug nut on each wheel and there is no lug key for it. What is my best option for replacing it? I was going to take it to Honda but I am not sure if that is going to be expensive or not.
Any input is greatly appreciated.

I'd say that a junkyard may be your best bet for the jack and lug wrench. It looks like the 03-07 accords use the same scissor jack.

Are you planning on replacing the key or using a regular lug nut?

 

Thanks PAhonda.
I am planning on just replacing the locking lugs with standard lugs as the locking ones really don't slow down a thief.

 

You can try removing them yourself. Get the lug nuts and take the car to a shop that does tire service and get the tires rotated. Ask to have the locking nut replaced, since this car is new to you and you don't have the key.

There is a video on how to remove them:

 

Thanks guys.
I just called Hayward Honda and he said if they are Honda locking lugs he will remove them for free, but if they are aftermarket locking lugs he will charge me $135 which is not going to happen.
I asked how much for four new standard OEM lug nuts and he said four would be $55. Are you kidding me?
What's my best bet at getting four lug nuts fairly cheap without going to a junk yard?

 

Yeah, Honda wants an 'arm & leg' for lugs, etc
I checked with one of our forum's sponsors (Carid) but could not locate lugs, however there are many available to select from @ Amazon:

 

Have you tried a parts store? There are a couple of options based upon the wheel option so you might want to take one with you to be sure you get the right "seat" to the wheel.

 

Thanks Poorman212, I bought some OEM lugnuts on eBay for $20 and I am going to just pound my Craftsman 24mm socket onto them and remove them. Lifetime warranty on the sockets so any damage and I'll take it back to Sears.
