Good first picture Omar. It will help you to get better definition on where the tops of the left and right hand lugs/ears start as they are the least well lit and you will need to know which is bigger! If you do another to show this I will point you in the right direction but please be aware that some keys are very similar an, on occasion, it is only possible to narrow down the options to two or three of the 20 keys. This is not the end of the world as, even if you have to buy a couple they are easily resaleable and, almost noone ever replaces their lockers so can sell all of those they buy. Hope this helps, Mike.

Apologies, if my reply here would not make sense for someone, who read thru all 7 previous & ancient pages of posts - I did not. I just read the few posts from yesterday. And seeing that issue, I think it should be possible to remove the lock-nut (where the key is missing) with a Bolt Nut Extractor. You can find one of those sets e.g. on Aliexpr.. First apply penetration spray, though. And then use a new lock-nut, for which you have the key.

PS: Obviously, ideally you would also need something like an air-powered (or other) impact driver for those extractor sockets... But it could possibly work to hammer the tool onto the lock-nut and use a simple ratchet or solid lever.

Back in the day we would take a 12 point craftsman chrome socket and bash it on, then spin it off.

These lockers are tamper proof in that the top halves spin independently from the bottom which they overhang making this method ineffective on these domed lockers.
There are other ways and means which are an awful lot of effort and could damage the wheels so, in the end it is advisable to get the correct key if possible. Mike.

Keys are usually readily available on Ebay. Suggest searching for words to the effect of: Jaguar locking nut key H.

Please note that key H is probably the most likely to distort of the 20 available due to its design shape. For that reason a key may not easily fit onto your nuts and may need persuading if you are unlucky. For that reason I have three different key Hs in my master set so that I can always find one that fits easily.

Hope this helps.

Mike.
