Lug Nuts and locks

rhis is the part number for anyone that wants to remove the wheel locks for the new defender L663.
about $50 for 6 of them.

Always a good idea to have a few spare ones. They have an uncanny tendency to go walkabout in the dirt. Should anybody need any PM me I have a bunch spare we can come to an agreement on.

Locking wheel nuts sound like an awful PITA. I wouldn't think many folks in the states electively spec them. Probably popular in the UK where everything gets half-inched.

Our Defenders came with wheel locks and I replaced the locking lug nut on the 4 active tires with a regular lug nut. No need to make changing a flat tire even more difficult. But I did keep one locking nut on the spare tire since I sometimes park in NYC any anything not locked down there tends to disappear.
