Got mine back up to a full set at the Essex meet. All four disappeared again. They seemed a tight enough fit not to just fall off...  :-/

I reckon Lazytinker has nicked them . Hes like a magpie - always gathering little bits & pieces. ::) :D ;D
JCB asked me for a pair of wiper arm caps. I went home and looked for them and then remembered that you had them.I did send him a message to nick them from you but you had already left. ;D
