108s - wheelnuts

Hi,

I had my 108s replaced under warranty and just noticed that one of the wheelnuts on each wheel is not a regular one (which would could be opened with a normal spanner). I am guessing that this is some form of locking wheelnut - does anyone else with 108s have similar and if so, where do you find the magic key ?

Thanks

...and if the locking tool isn't in your boot, pop along to your local dealer. Mine was missing when I bought the car (privately) but someone from the parts desk brought out a massive box of different splined locking tools and tried them until they found the correct one.

Not an expensive thing if you need to buy a new one.
 
Thats refreshing to know! Lost the locking nut on my old Focus and dealer wanted about £50 to knocked out the old nut and replace it with new. No option given to look through the box of splined locking nuts and pick the right one. I am sure they had them though. Must be a common occurance.
