Default Locking wheel nuts

Bought a Saab 9-5 a few weeks ago and it needs new brake pads. But the car doesnt have the lock nut to get the locking wheel nut off. The dealer (not Saab) has no clue where it is either. At the time I took their word it was in the glove box !!! More fool me, but what do I do now ? Do tyre places have the ability to get them off ? Or is it back to Saab I go ?

Any help appreciated.

I'd try a Saab dealer first. They MAY have your car on computer if you give them registration mark or chassis number. I know Scoob and Citroen dealers can do this, and keep details of wheelnut key, radio code etc.

Failing that, a good wheel place will get them off, but it can be destructive.
