    Must be well hidden because I haven't seen them.

    I know I could tell you to look for a chromed socket in a plastic bag in a door pocket or the tool tray in the trunk, but it would be easier not to type that!

    If that doesn't work, then maybe someone forgot to put one in your car.

    Check on the sizes of your tires while you're about. The dimensions are written on the sidewalls. That'll save you having to look them up in the driver's manual.

    I think there is a slot for it in the trunk when you pull the panel for the toolkit. I'll check when I get home.

    The bad news is that most Boxsters only have one of these nuts!
