CS,
You DA GIRL!
You put the muffler hangers on by yourself. I'm impressed. I have doen that job and even with a couple floor jacks and getting thoes hooks really close together, it is STILL a job. You go girl!

I think you can use a Metric bolt the same size thread and just use them instead of the locks, I don't think there is much of a threat of theft for these old wheels out there. You can buy them all day long at Pull-A-Part for $25.00 tire and all.

I kept a set of 15" Centra's and two had locks and a 2 didn't, but had a metric bolt holding the caps on.
The Centra's may go on Abby when she is running and looking better.

wasn't easy but I'm proud
got that muffler tight as can be up to the undercarraige bolt
used a 2 by 4 & a milk crate & some heavy low box to wedge under the wood to keep it up
LOL
then I wrestled a good time til I finally figured to use a screwdriver to pry & position & well its done

so saved that $
got my wheel locks off so now the hunt is on

I took them to another MB mech who the locksmith recommended
lucky thing he is a few blocks from my home
anyway he said to be careful of getting bolts as they are beveled & a straight bolt head could get wedged

I cleaned up the locks
they are not symetrical
looks like a hand cut head

I don;t know
I found out they are 8mm & I might see if Home depot has some similar
& I like to get them in stainless if I can
probllem solved
anyway if I don't put them on too tight I can use a screwdriver to take them 0ff \
