Ever lost your wheel nut locking key ?
Just thought this info might be helpful if you ever find yourself in the situation that I am in. I could claim that my new import came without one, but the truth of the matter is that I have lost it somehow, and I can only think that I left it on the nut after tightening it. Frigging annoying and noone else to blame !
I found a site,Locking Wheel Nut Keys, took 2 photos of the nut and provided i.d yesterday, Sunday, and an oem key has already been posted out.
I have no connection with this firm, other than as a customer, and will report back when I try it. Cost was £ 48 with priority posting.

My ford one broke, and I ended up welding a bolt onto the locking nut and got it off that way.
Had I known about the above site, however, I would have tried that first instead of welding...

A replacement is £12 from Subaru just give them your vin number and they will source you the correct key.
That's if you still have the oem locking kit of course.
