Knightrider 1 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Me again! I'm missing 4 of the black plastic covers that go on the wheelnuts (not the locking one) for a Highline with the BBS 5 spokes. VW don't supply any more. Anyone got any....and could I buy them please? Otherwise, any ideas as to where I could get some? Link to post Share on other sites

binliner 0 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 they're the same as the black plastic ones... you use a little plastic tool to pull them off Link to post Share on other sites

Knightrider 1 Posted May 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 I've established that MK4 covers will fit, but I have a Highline with the original alloys and they have 'deep' wheel nut holes, so the original MK3 ones are longer than the MK4 ones, so that they 'fill' the hole with respect to depth and are almost flush with the face of the alloy. If you use the MK4 ones, which you can, they sit a long way into the wheel. Works, but does not look the same. Same goes for the eBay ones. Link to post Share on other sites
