Default Replacement anti-theft socket f/ wheel lugs

Lost or misplaced my anti-theft socket and cannot come across part # to replace it or find it. It is different from that of a Boxster S; any help appreciated!!

There are multiple options. In New Zealand, we have to go to a Porsche Centre, prove ownership, then have them bring out a set of sockets. I have never ordered a socket. There are many versions. I wouldn’t be surprised if you have to order a new set. Numbers are attached.

As for me, I removed mine on all my cars. These are often an own goal with little real world protection.

You might want to replace that lug nut with standard 19mm so they all match.
