lost my security key for the wheel nuts!

managed to lose the special key to remove the security lugs on my car's wheels. i can get the dealer to mount dismount, but the only way to get my own is to buy a whole new set, which is both unnecessarily expensive, and more to the point-- i don't even want the security bolts anyway.

where can i order a set of Porsche approved / compatible regular bolts to replace the 4 security bolts on my car?

the car is never left in a situation where the wheels could be stolen anyway...

TIA!

Get some proper chrome lug bolts from Ralph Boothe instead of those rusty pimpels.

Just cut the wheel nut off with an acetylene torch.

hehehe well, thanks for some of the more... ahem... *creative* suggestions

anyway, my dealer will only sell a new security key together with a set of wheel nuts... a COMPLETE set of wheel nuts for all 4 wheels.

as i don't need the anti-theft nuts, i'm asking them if they'll just sell me 4 pcs of the regular nuts so i can ditch the security ones and not care that i don't have a key.

thanks!
