benmic92 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I am struggling to find anywhere I can get hold of one used wheel nut for my 1999 1.4 lupo with 13" steel wheels. I have only had the car Few weeks and today took my wheel trims off, to my horror there is one nut missing.I dont want to buy an entire set nor do I want a set of lockibg nuts, does anyone have a spare knocking around in the garage.Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Won't cost more than a couple quid from a garage or dealer, but you could go to a local breaker.I have loads, but you could get it quicker and cheaper locally.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-M12-x-1-5-40mm-RADIUS-ALLOY-WHEEL-BOLT-AUDI-CAB-BMW-e30-VAUXHALL-VW-GOLF-MK1-2-/130704282192?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Wheels_tyres_Trim_Nuts_ET&hash=item1e6e951250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Dealers sell them for like 2 quid but as mentioned before you're just as easy getting one from a scrappy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benmic92 Posted October 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 got one from vw, about £3 then i realised why the previous owner had left it out, the hole was mashed, i ended up using a tap kit and re-tapping the threads for the bolt so a 1 minute job turned out to take 2 hours all good now, thanksMick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
