is the code likely to be in the handbook or is it going to be a trip to the dealer to work out which of A-Z fits?

i know someone who lost his locking nut key and it was more expensive to buy just the key that it was to buy a whole new set of bolts,

If you want to go the cowboy method you can buy the tool to remove locking wheel nuts for less than that (and there is no labour!)

but can you , as most locking removal tools can only be used once, so you need 4 of them 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater ))) |

yep I'm aware of the 'extractor' socket type universal wheel lock removers but as the originals havent been burgered by attempted theft I reckon I'll go for gettign amain dealer to unscrew the old ones so I cna fit a new set......nice to know there is a Plan B though |
