locking wheel nut problem

[scotte666]

when changing my brake pads i seem to have somehow lost the locking wheel nut key.does any1 know if renault fitted these as standard i've got a pic of mine (they look pretty old so thought they might be renault) but the uploader isnt working.......could maybe get a socket over the top but dont really wanna ruin them if i can get a replacement key for renault....any1 help?

Renault ones had a metal ring round the outside which rotated to try to stop people hammering a socket over them.

I now have 3 keys for mine, i always eseem to end up loosing them

yea that sounds like mine r there many different varients of these and will i be able to pick up a key from renault?any ideas on price mate?

could always upgrade them and get some McGuard ones from Halfords like i did.

Look better aswell.

[scotte666]

yes but i wanted to get the old ones off first without battering them or having to pay some1 to dril them out

[northy]

Im sure someone will post you a key mate.
