Tool for taking lug nuts/bolts off - LotusTalk

comptalk · 10-29-2009, 04:03 PM

For some reason, my car did not come with the tool to take off the tires. Need to replace one and do not have to tool to take the lug nuts/bots off. Can someone tell me where to pick a replacement up?

Is number 7 the only one I need to take the wheels off?

Yeah, they're cheap. Your local Lotus dealer will have one. Auto Europe - Birmingham, Michigan's Lotus / Morgan / European Automobile Sales and Service Since 1965 - Home has them in stock also.

I mean, that and some kind of wrench/ratchet/socket set/torque wrench. Don't remember the socket size off the top of my head.

Great will order. The # 6 they have, do you know if those are the Lotus emblem ones or just the standard black ones?

Nope. The part where you fill the air in the tire.
