944 Wheel lock work principle

Hello! I'm new, just got a cheap white 1987 944, but boy what a brutal piece of metal! i love it.

Anyways, the prev owner (=reseller) didn't have the wheel lock keys (same old story).

I read the topics and people have succesfully picked those locks with some help of a locksmith. So i did try that too, and a local shop guy was very helpful but couldn't get it off, because he wasn't sure how exactly those locks come off. So he suggested i ask people on here.

How exactly does it come off? Does it spin off, or it pulls off? This isn't obvious because the whole lock is rotating with the key! Where do you apply the tension to take it off?

The greater detail the better. Maybe a scheme? Thanks so much.

p.s. i know this might be a wrong thing to wright in terms of security so i guess PM would be a way to keep sensitive information hidden. Although personnaly i don't worry that much of my wheels stolen
