No worries about the revival.
Any wheel lock that properly seats against the rim will work.
[For an Integra, that means a locking nut with the correct "conical" taper on the seating face of the nut. ]
And any tire & brake shop with the master key for the McGard locking nuts will be able to remove the OEM locking nut.
McGard is the OEM wheel lock supplier for Acura; they're concerned about someone trying to use a nut that doesn't fit correctly. And their concern helps drive traffic to the dealers. So from their perspective, both parties benefit.
