How many different anti-theft wheel bolts?
Recently bought an E39, which has the same ant-theft wheel bolts as my e34.
Both have the same number adapter, so either adapter fits the bolts on both. Just wondered how many variations there are. Mike. |

There are at least 20 adaptors I think. -- Who needs a life when you've got Unix? :-) Email: , John G.Burns B.Eng, Bonny Scotland Web : http://www.unixnerd.demon.co.uk - The Ultimate BMW Homepage!

Just checked on www.realoem. Looks like there are 30. Coded 11-40 inc. With so few adapters, it doesn't seem like a particularly good anti-theft device. Mike. |
