Where can I buy some at?

Ok so my car used to be almost mint condition, Before, i took it too the garage. See i took it there for inspection about ooo 4 mounths ago. O and by the way its a 86 rx7 n/a 98,000 wrecked once (drifting accident). so it was my baby. it needed a new turn signal unit on the right side and i asked around and every one said its probabally going to be 300 dollers for the unit. I was like wtf. So i figured ok might as well pay for it its my baby. So then they call back and there like you need 4 new tires but that doesant supprise me because i like to drift around just about everything so i was like ok throw them on the bill too. So i call back a mounth later, hopefully they have it done. nope not done. I go in 2 mounths later car is sitting out side the shop and up here in Pennsylvania we have been getting ice storms lately, so, yea, not to good for a car parked out side. I needed to get my snowboarding boots out of the back so i go into get the key the guy sais "O uhh that nissan out there, uhh its unlocked" i was like you dident just call my car a ******* nissan so i go to open the door and it wouldent come open, so i looked at the lock a on the other side and the lock was up went back around to the driver side door and noticed the window was open about an inch., so someone probabally tryed to steal my car im guessing pulled on the door and it opend finally and i figured the 2 inches of ice at the bottem of the inside of the door dident help me opening it. And upon opening it found that someone went through all my stuff in my car and i wouldent be supprized if they stole something. so i just called them because i just want my car back and they said they have the turn signal done but if i would bring my lug nut key in. my moms friends with this guy so i just want to get my car back. My delema now is i cant find my lug nut key, does anyone know where to buy one online or do i have to special order it from the factory.

I believe they have vertical ridges on the inside. Hammer it on and then remove the nut. Most large tire shops have them if you want to check.

I think I'd never go back to that place again. Find a different shop.

As far as the key goes, I believe the company was called McGard that supplied Mazda with wheel locks. I don't think the dealer will carry the keys, but they can get you in touch with who will.
