scum bags took stereo front and my locking wheel nut

[stevyj]

hi some scrote the other night opened my back window and took my stereo front and my locking wheelnut to add insult to being made to watch twilight eclipse. no damage been done to car but i need a new stereo fron it was a pioneer with usb stick.

also the locking wheel nut has thrown a spanner in the works because they obviously have intentions of taking my oz's. the locking wheel nut was like a 5 sided clover if you understand me . is it possible to get a new one to relase the locking wheel nut? or will i have to get a kit and fanny about at some smack heads expense.

i hate thieves arrggghhhh

never go to burnley its shit

[stevyj]

[stevyj]

I would get a garage to take off the locking nuts and get a new set

you might be able to get a new key, but you would have to buy it, theirs no point tho as they still have a key aswell. just hammer a socket over it and remove it that way and get a new set of locking bolts

[richyh368]

lost mine a few months back if they are the original citroen ones your local citroen garage should be able to supply you with a copy from your reg cost me about £35 ish, if not hammer and socket pal

[stevyj]

cheers for reply people what do the original citroen ones look like. i think there after market ones tho. grrr ill try the socket option as i need to put discs and pads on front

[geordie_alex]

ou could just buy another set of locking nuts and remove another nut insert the locking one so you now have two in the wheels it'l piss the little cuntys right off when they come back.

Means it gives you a bit longer to figure out if you can get a citroen remover/key and then you have spares?!

[stevyj]

yeah true it was in burnley when it happened and im in skipton. just winding me up as i usually like simple fixes it looks like a common locking nut aint a weird pattern or anything

They look like McGuard ones, but could be wrong.

[stevyj]

will have a look
thanks

[stevyj]

can i just buy the new master key for the wheel nuts? cos if its a full set i might as well be new locking wheel nuts and get a the old ones removed with a removal tool. but can you only use the removal tool once then you need a new one. excuse my stupidness as i dont make it a habit of letting scruffy smack head scrote fuckwits putting me in a pickle

[-shuggles-]

my mate welded a nut onto the locking wheel nut and just took it off like a normal bolt if thats any help? a wouldnt put another set of locking wheels nuts on incase you piss them off cuz then it could end up more expensive:n:

[stevyj]

i think ill try the scrapyard method been reading around and someone said they went to a breakers yeard and had them off in minutes so il go and see them tommorrow cheers guys ill post results

[citroen_saxo_vtr]

Some tyre garages have special tools they hold over the locking stud and wack with a hammer and it moulds to the shape to remove but you would need new ones..........

[adamskiTNR]

Not that i'm suggesting it, But my mate was a bit paranoid of his new (yes new) bbs wheels on his s14 that he found 5 different locking nut sets and put one of each on each wheel. hahaha. He never lost a wheel

[stevyj]

lol b et nuts were worth more than the wheels

[adamskiTNR]

No, he had brand spanking bbs

[leeroy1]

who the hell steals wheels man. if you want hot wheels fuck off to toys r us

I was gunna say mate, I will keep an eye out for your stereo - I noticed you were from Skipton so I thought it would be some scrag from Bradford nicking it and selling it local... but then I read nicked from Burnley :n:

Ive got some McGaurd ones on mine with a locking key so if your ever about Bingley u can see if by chance mine fits then either take all 4 out and replace em or just get a new locking nut key with the number.

I needed to get my mates pug 306 locking nut off badly the other month to do the brakes - no key - peugeot wanted silly money (£70+ for a replacement) so we took the 3 bolts out, then late at night did a few turns round a roundabout untill the bastard thing broke off. Old shit drilled out, jacked up, wheel bolted back on minus the locking nut :y:
