Right some Low Life Piece of Scum has tried nicking one of my wheels at some point in the last week and has chewed up the locker on one wheel.

I know it was OK last week as i had the wheel off, I know the locker was OK when i put it back on as i use a torque wrench to put them back on. I noticed my front pads were very low while the wheel was off so was going to change them last night and found the locker all chewed and it now wont key to the locking nut key.

I can only assume it happened on Sunday night when i left the car in a shady part of Leeds over night. No damage to the rest of the car, so i assume they gave up and/or may have been disturbed....

How can i get the damaged locker off, Anyone got any bright ideas?
