Go to the dealer. They can order a new key, any they'll have a key set that can remove the ones on the car.

Unfortunately there is no such thing as The Universal Key. It's likely he has the dealer installed wheel locks made by McGuard. There are 10 different patterns of keys on their locks, so a set is required to match up the right one. Dealers have them, I'm not sure how many other people do.
