Long story short
My mothers Vauxhal Zafira needs a tyre replaced but she does'nt have the locking wheel nut socket.
She rang the dealers with not much help other than you need the code on the box of the socket for a replacement.
Im looking for the cheapest option of removing and replacing the wheel nuts.
Few options I have thought of.

- Buy a tool which cost £14 to remove such nuts but very fiddly and nut can get stuck in tool and replaces nuts.
- Take to a garage which specialise in tyres and get them to break off and replace nuts
- Do vauxhal have master sockets ??? if so pay the large sum they will no dout charge for someone to take the nuts off and put new ones on
