NOTE: This is for members and their private sales/wants.
There are rules that suppliers have to follow (and many of you do follow the rules). However there have been a number of instances recently where "suppliers" have broken the rules.
Suppliers/Dealers or anyone selling with a commercial view in mind CANNOT post here unless responding to a specific request of a member in a "wanted" post.
Suppliers include people "breaking for spares" on a regular basis, when purchasing spares members should ask a supplier what they contribute to the running of the forum

I suppose could understand it if it was a set of wheels from some new and expensive Bentley or something - bar stewards the lot of them

I took it to one of the tyre outlets and they removed them for me using a hydraulic crusher... brilliant....but the manager said just that to me when it was finished..."don't bother with lockers, people don't nick wheels nowadays".
Wish I had his optimism !!!!
I'm planning to live forever.....so far, so good !!

Chis Baxter, Sir
A huge "THANK YOU" to you for sending me that link.
Andrew Ghey immediately identified and sent me the correct replacement adapter for £20 saving me a lot of stress, time, and hassle. Luckily my tyres stayed inflated in the interim!
For anyone else that might find themselves in a similar predicament in the future and finds this thread, Andrew is contactable directly at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. - just send him a clear photo of the locking-nut. He's friendly and communicative and will get a replacement to you very quickly.
I can't thank him (or Chris Baxter) enough.
I am however still on the lookout for 4 x standard Jimny alloy wheel-nuts... so anyone breaking a Jimny I will be at the October meet-up and could pick them up then.

I'm no off-roader but old habits die hard, I always keep a spare key tool (one in the car, one in the shed) and a set of standard nuts for punture likely outings. I bought a set of 5 Febi 46694 nuts for £25 but if I was buying again I'd chase down a set of second hand ones.
