This socket can be purchased from any ex Rover dealer who still supply rover parts

The ones on eBay are often dearer than the MGRover price.

They're a fiver on eBay atm. I can't see them in Rimmer's listing, but a fiver seems fair enough. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_nkw=r...sacat=0&bkBtn=

The No12 fits 90% of cars, so it's a reasonable bet yours is.

Reason not on the Rimmers listing or on EPC is so the Part Number is not generally known as a security measure.

.
Are available from Rimmers and any XPart Parts dealer.

A tyre fitter damaged mine. They are also used by BMW so he got me a new one from a BMW dealer.

For information for Members.

They are in stock at Rimmers and cost £2.95 each + VAT.
Just ask for: Adaptor-road wheel security (No 12)
If you also need the Part Number for your own records, subscribed members can PM me for the Information.

Also, if you have the McGard type, they can be contacted direct on 004971 3390190

Hope the above Information helps.
Far cheaper than the Prices on EBay.
