Removing of factory wheel nuts.....

[Havok316]

When i bought my car i stupidly didnt check for the kit in the boot, now im missing a jack and wheel nut. How can i remove these small vauxhall wheel nuts? They are for 2001 astra coupe 5 star wheels 16inch? They look round with 4 round bits in in a square shape. Is it possible to weld on a socket and remove them that way?

Cheers

drill them out.

you need cobalt steel bits, and some patience

[ross501]

you can get replacement keys from vauxhall just give them the chassis number

chisel off the shiney ring around the edge with a screwdriver.

then hammer a socket onto it

Cheers guys got em off! I used floellas idea since the bolt was hardened steel a drill was a pain in the arse, so we used a tarmac breaker pin to snap the outer ring off then a 17m socket to get the blightas off cheers guys
