Default Removing Security Wheel Nut

Well, that'll teach me to remove the wheels for cleaning .

I seem to have "misplaced" my 'key' to remove my security wheel nuts.

Obvioulsy may now have to buy another set, but how do i remove the ones i have without the key .

Anyone else been in this predicament before.

Cancel my last, after searching for the ruddy thing for over an hour, the wife found it

Thank goodness for wives

make sure you know the make/No in future... you can get replacements if needed.

Good point, well made

It is a standard Subaru one, all it has is "McGARD" printed on the side and no other defining numbers etc.

Tissy, You could always just leave it in the lorry park on burnt mills for a few minutes Friday or Saturday night if you lose the key again, sure one of the undesirables there will have them off....
