Default security wheel nut key lost

It is in the garage somewhere as I used it just a couple of days ago, however it is nowhere to be found, so after a quick google/youtube I found this solution.


An M14 spline.





I plan to buy four new nuts and bin the security nuts as they are a total waste of time.

Hi Mike,
I have lost my locking wheel nut key so can't see the letter code. It's an XF 2017. Do you still have the images for sale?
Thanks,
Glyn.

You can get replacement from autoreserve in the UK...need a photo of the nut slots to identify or code . if you still have a nut go make a note of the code now its stamped on the top
