Go dealers and ask to borrow theirs nicely. Or if it's aftermarket you will have to get it taken off by smashing a socket over it or welding to it.

They look like aftermarket locking nuts so you'll need to do what slix said.

As above,a double hex socket hammered on to the locking wheel bolt

They look like an old set I had.

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201681921129
