because it would mean getting a wheel off to get the center cap out  :confused: unless you know of a way to get them out other than taking a wheel off?

Is there not a small cut out on the circumference of the cap to get a screwdriver in and flick it out?

Is on my caps.

....

The centre caps fit both Monza 17's and 18's - I've got a set of both wheels for sale plus a loose set of new VW caps which fit both.
