#1: How to remove a locking wheel nut without the key Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Wed Jun 15, 2011 9:50 am ---- Does anyone know how to remove a locking wheel without the key? I used the locking wheel nut about a week before my crash, but since my crash I can't find it, I'm not sure if it flew out the car or not, I've had everything out the car but can't find it for love nor money!
