Removing Locking Wheel Nuts (lost key)

Yep, I had a similar idea once, only mine was magnetic, and didn't mention anything about wheels on the lid.

Put it in the boot, lovely!

Until the day I loaded something rather awkward to go to the tip....forgot about the box, it got knocked off, attached itself [I believe] to the items for the tip, and got consigned to landfill itself...complete with locking key!

Ended up wanging an old socket onto locking nut, etc.....D'oh!!!

When I lost mine I took the letter code off the wheel nut and bought a new one. It wasn't that much and at least it will save any potential damage.

I can't seem to find anything written on the car

Look on the locking nut itself -- there may be a letter or number, I recall mine was a "d". Get your specs on!
