The tyre place that fitted my wheels over tightened my wheel bolts as usual; however they've bent the pins on my wheel nut "key". I managed to get three of the bolts out before all of the pins sheered off.
Now I'm left with a locking wheel bolt in one wheel which I can remove; I still have the "key" but its useless without the pins
Any ideas for removing it?

Take it back to the garage if you can prove they fucked up your key.
If not, can't you order another key? I know you can with Vaux ones.
