it has the three dot one if you know what i mean, in a shape of a triangle. The pins dropped out of mine, and i have now a flat tyre!

I think they're all 3pin in a triangular shape, however, they're not all the same.
I had to order a new one...£9 from your dealer.
They need your VIN to order it.

The wheels are aftermarket subaru ones. is this ok?

i need to borrow more than anything at the moment!

HK,
They're all different. If you borrow one, it's unlikely to fit IMHO.
However I'd have thought the nuts are likely to be original even if the wheels aren't, so the dealer may be the best bet.
Either that or take it to your local wheel dealer. Sometimes they have a big bag of differnet ones that you can try till you find one that fits (not sure how you get it there though unless it's a slow punct !!)

I have one similar you could try. In Bmouth all day.... mail me if you want.
Dont they all have different length pins and different distances apart? In my pack was a code number for re-ordering...

Also I have a compressor that is powered from the ciggy lighter, you could pump it up, drive a bit, pump it up again etc
Alternatively, can't you take a big lump of blue tak and stuff it in the locking nut, then take the bluetak to the wheel place or dealers and see if they have a matching adapter.

Shouldnt really say this but.....
Its dead easy to get them off with a hammer and chisell,or hammer and screw driver.Just make your mark,then chisell it round.I have done this on several occasions(LEGALLY)Taking wheels off cars in scrap yards.The nut is in the bin though!
