Default Standard vRS Lock Nuts

Does anyone know if the wheel locking nuts for the vRS are all the same ?

Just went to remove my wheel and mine is missing.

It must've been misplaced when i was getting the springs done.

Anyone ??

It's kinda urgent ! lol

You can get another from the dealer but I think you will need a code and then it's an order only thing. There are quite a few combinations and the likelyhood of finding someone with the same one is slim

When I did this with mine I went to the motorfactors, got a removal socket (About £15 for the pair) and took them off myself replacing them with aftermarket ones. This cost me about £35 and took about 2 hours. If your in a hurry this may be your only option.

Thanks Decron.

Just called the dealer but Parts dept are closed for lunch so i'll call back in 20 mins.

I'd rather just wait and order the key from them, as i'd eventually need one for the rest incase i have to take them off.

Now, where's the code i need

They're different patterns, but only about £20 for a new set from the dealer.

You would think he would have stuck it in the car ie the glovebox or the secret glovebox, that reminds me but I think my key is in in the car now thinking about it.

It was me who packed away the springs, and i think i may have just been lazy and thrown the key in with the springs as i couldn't get under the carpet because of the box in the boot.

I've done that before Johnny and could not figure out where I had left something.
