Lost wheel locking nut

[carl24]

any ideas on how to remove the bolts???

BMW dealers usually keep a full set in, and they'd be able to check which one fits and order a new one. If you bring along spare bolts, you could swap the lockers but i guess they'd want the locking key sale to warrant them wandering round the carpark with a bag of nuts.

The key bits are pretty cheap, sub 5 quid i'm sure

thing is though mate i dont know if there original bmw, is there anyway of finding out??? ive only had the car 2 months! and its a 1996 so it could have had a few diff sets of locking nuts on

Original BMW security bolts should look like the one above - with either more or less splines.
If not , they will probably be aftermarket.

Just to add to the above, & provided they haven't been left off; there's a black plastic cap with a hexangonal moulding & the BMW badge embossed on it, which protects the female socket in the bolt: they just clip over, & can be a b*gger to get out on certain styles of wheel.
