I should have 4 and a key somewhere but no idea where. I might have binned them. I'm sure someone must have a set to hand!

I had a set from Old Blackie, but put them back on before trade in as I thought 4 wheel nuts would be of more use to me long term :headbang:

I've got a set from when I took them off my D3. Need to look in the garage but assuming I can find them, they're yours

Lemme see if I can find them when I get home. There would be 4 in the set as I removed all 4 and replaced them with normal nuts (OCD about all looking the same)

2 each?

Not sure what key they are though.

Of course, even if I can't find them there is another set about to come off the new FFRR. That OCD again :lol:

If I can you both could have a set with a key. :thumbright:
