Does anyone know where or have a spare cap cover for a locking wheel nut, Subaru supplied kit?

One of mine has come off, dont know how but hope to god it wasnt anyone checking the wheels for nicking them !

I dont like the idea of buying a whole set just for the cap, tried Halfords and local tyre specialist.

Think I've a set off my old MG somewhere in the garage.
I'll check if they fit the Scoob tonight, and give you a shout if they do.

Few of my mates have said "what you making a fuss about, just leave it".

But now I've seen it missing, its all I think about

Sad eh?

If it's the cap that just looks like the top of a normal wheel bolt then you can buy these individually from a Subaru dealer.

Unhappy

I did look in the toolkit but couldnt see one in there.

Thanks for the advice, I will call the local Subaru dealer.

Scooby Towers, thanks mate.

Butty box note worked
Unfortunatly the MG covers didn't.
Kept falling off as they are a squashed round shape that connect to the nut in 2 spots and the Scooby one connect in 3 spots.
You can have em if you want but I don't think they would stay on long.
