Hi. Does anyone know if the key used on the alloy wheel centre caps is car specific or does one key fit all cars as mine is missing and cant get the buggers of. Cheers in advance.

If you mean the wheel locking nuts I think you will find all the ones on the car should be the same.
I had this problem when my key socket broke. I managed to weld mine, good enough to undo all the lock nuts, then I refitted with normal Vx wheel bolts.

There appears to be a protective disc over the wheel bolts.

I think there are only a handfull of key variations for this circular locking plate but the actual locking wheelnuts, if fitted, is something completely different....
You should be able to get one at a dealers without loosing to many arms/legs. Or try a scrappers... :y

I went to our Vauxhall Dealers to see if i could get another Locking Key but I needed to have the Security Number given with the Locking Nuts, that I didn't have ::)

There are a few veriations but if you remove the center plastic pin they seem to fit most. if not tap the bolt around with a punch and undo them with a pair of long nose pliers. I beleve a new set of bolts and key is about £20 from vaux(im sure someone will confirm)
