Is there such a thing for these cars? I would hope so considering how much the 124's cost to replace
What does everyone use?

Locking wheel bolts are available from BMW (Dealer accessory) or through aftermarket sources. Here's an example: http://www.bavauto.com/fland.asp?part=36%2...206%20762%20331

take a closer look at you wheel bolts initially I didn't realize that I had them either because they cover the locking bolt with a black cap that looks like all the other bolts. My key was just sitting in the trunk with the tools

As far as I know they are a option?
