Locking wheel nuts
Just been and had 4 new tyres fitted
I've only owned the car a week and the guy I bought it off just gave me the locking wheel nut socket before I drove off
Just got home from getting the tyres fitted and I didn't get the locking wheel nut back off them (d'oh!!!).
Is there somewhere that it will have been put (on my vx220 there was a special hidy hole where they are kept)
Gunna ring them tomorrow to see where they have put it or if they still have it but thought i'd ask if there is somewhere its likely to be before I do
Had a look in the boot, under the bonnet etc but can't find it??
Cheers

Any tyre shop can remove a locking wheel nut, the problem is the nut is destroyed in the process.
Failing that, is there a number printed on the nut? Subaru tend to use McGuard locking nuts so you can just contact them with the number and order a new key.
