With all the different code combinations,you may be better and quicker getting a brand new set off fleabay.

They are often advertised and even with the weight of postage charge they shouldn,t break the bank..and they will be all new and matching.

Quite easy to get off without the key.

had to take the same ones off mine with no key recently as it had been lost by a previous owner.

PM and i will explain my method.
Only took half hour for all 4 and no damage to wheels at all.

You will need nuts to replace though. As they do get kinda mashed.

Vauxhall locking wheel bolts are universally crap. Remove and replace with a normal wheel bolt.

Or if you must have them, ensure that you remove and retorque every month.
