Try this place I got to on the net.
Need4Speed Motorsports or you can call them 818 547 5771. They guys there are right across the street from CalStar Mercedes. They can get you what ever you need. Good luck, hope that helps you out.

A couple of good ones:

RAD Direct ~ $50 for a set
McGard -I got these here (~$30 for the set).

And yes... your stealer's trying to rape you. They quoted me $125. Ridiculous.

Rumor has it that McGard makes the wheel bolts for M-B.

No problems at all. They are the same length & width as the OEM bolts. I've used McGard Wheel Locks before, and although no wheel lock is impenetrable, I have never had any issues with them.
