Or just, hammer on a silghtly smaller socket and ratchet off and get a new key and locking nuts. Whatever is easiest/cheapest

So break them off and buy new locks or just buy the original key. $10 per wheel is $40 which means he paid more for the removal then to get the key.

I bought a replacement at my dealer for $20. They have all the masters, can fit them and find the one for your car, and should probably have it in stock.
