alloy centre caps
« on: 25 September 2008, 12:26:20 »

Hi all I'm wondering if anybody knows where I can get centre caps for my alloys from. Its got the standard 1999 gls alloys on but only 2 wheels have caps. Also the key thing to undo them is broke,only has 2 prongy things instead of 3!! :D
Any help would be welcome
Cheers

just to confirm, the keys for the centre cap bolt, not a security wheel nut that holds the wheel on?  If this is the case it can be undone with a pair of needle nose pliers, which saves giving vx money for a new key.
