Locking Wheel Nuts replaced

I've just had my locking wheel nuts replaced under warranty, as one of them was getting more awkward to get off. The outer bit was turning and you had to put lots pressure on to get it off. When it was in for service they also noticed and ordered me a new set.

The top of the lockers is held onto the rest of the nut by a force fit onto splines. part of the anti tamper feature is that, if to try to remove the nut with a chisel or similar the head of the nut will turn nut not the body of the nut with the thread.
