Broken locking socket

[kozulin]

Dear 986 owners.

Did anyone break locking socket for wheel nut?

I receintly bought Boxster, but did not check locking socket.

So I got it broken. Does anyone know where to get new one be cause I failed with search?

Thank you in advance

You will need the number off the side of the socket (I hope you kept it).

There a quite a number of socket keys so you just need to give them that number when you order.

The odd time the socket number is also written on the option list sticker located under the front trunk lid and don't use any type of impact wrench on these sockets.

I broke my socket last winter replacing my summer tires for my winter ones. I drove it to a dealer and the service guy came out and replace the lug nut for me. We had to special order a new one. He said there are 25 different (+- 1 or 2 I can't remember) combinations. It was like $40-$50 for one and took a week to receive it.
