Guys can anyone identify what make this locking tool is. I had this locking tool break on me trying to remove my wheels to polish inside I had to resort to drilling out the centre of my wheel stud due to the nature of how locking nut sits in wheel problem I now have is try to make one out of an old tool or buy a replacement so I can discard of the other three. Went to carstins this morning and they said its not a Subaru tool. Tried searching net but no joy thus far. Any help in what make it is so I can hunt down a new one would be fab as I really don't want to drill out three more studs and replace them
Thanks Kev

Sorry can't help with identifying the tool , you can get specific locking wheel nut removal tools ( but heard they not that great) is there enough room between the wheel and nut to hammer a socket on , I've had a great success rate with this method when there's the room

As long as they are steel bolts I just weld on a old 1/2 drive extension bar and undo them then chop the bolt off and repeat around the car.

I had the same problem with a snapped locking nut tool,
Bought a removal set from screwfix (product code - 94826) cost £25
Got the nut off in the end but difficult to start a decent thread due to it being a smaller size,
Ended up putting an extension bar in a cordless drill, with a bit of effort came off in the end, maybe worth a go rather than drilling studs etc!
