What you see is the picture is the cylindrical outer sleeve with a lock to hold it in place. What you don't see is the long lug nut inside the sleeve, into which the lock cylinder also fits. When in place, the sleeve turns and the nut underneath stays put. There is also a plastic cap for each unit to keep the moisture out of the lock cylinder.

I had a 944T with these on, and they worked fine ... even when the car was winter driven. Occasionally a bit of light non-detergent oil (mineral oil) in the lock cylinder is recommended ... when you change the tires is probably sufficient.

If you want to bid on these, I suggest confirming that the lug nuts (not pictured) are included.
