New 18" RS TT's

Post by S3MUD » Fri Feb 13, 2004 9:30 pm

Oh yes.. they are here! Woo hoo.

Having them fitted AM (Will post pics)

Quick question though guys. How on earth do you get the caps off when the wheel is on the car? Dont fancy using a screwdriver or similar as this may mark the wheel.

Do they just twist and pull?

Help please. [img]images/graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

There is a special tool in the toolkit (spare tyre well). It is a small piece of wire.

They do look nice ...... for a couple of weeks until you (or your missus :bash: ) mounts the kerb for the first time trying to park.
