Evening fellow PHers, I've just acquired a 2007 mk8 Honda Civic, I foolishly didn't check for an adapter to remove the locking wheel nuts, the person who gave me the car says it was lost a while ago and doesn't know where it is. Any idea where I can get a replacement, or point me in the direction of a service that takes them off so I can exchange them for standard wheel nuts. Thanks in advance. wink

Call your local honda dealer, they sold me a replacement for £10, cheapest I could find of all places!

You might have to take it to the dealer, so that they can physically go through the whole range of adapters.

I contacted my local dealer, they quoted me £30+ for the adapter, my local garage removed the locking nuts in under five minutes for nothing and I purchased 4 non locking Honda nuts for £5 from my local scrappy. Job jobbed. wink
