Standard locking nut/bolt

Post by Moos3h »

Uh-oh!

The locking nut/bolt key that has come with my car is damaged. Any idea if I can get a replacement? I think it's the standard Peugeot fitment one for the HDI 110 (15" alloys).

What a crap design! :S

It should have a code stamped on it. Take it to a stealer and they can get you a new one but to be honest they are a crap design with the pins alway's bending or shearing off so you might want to think about fitting an aftermarket set. :?

Seems a stupid question now I think about it, but you can get aftermarket locking nuts?


BTW, yeah, ditch the Peugeot nuts. They're so much trouble... :/
