All in about £35/£40, the caddy caps were from a breakers, hole saw, sealant and glue were lying round the workshop so the only big cost were the golf caps which were off ebay.

Re: Home made VW centre caps for Merc steels
I bought the steels as is, I think the previous owner must have removed them quite quickly and replaced them with alloys. I'm fortunate that my younger brother lives in Germany and speaks it very well so when he's got the time he looks out for parts for me. I've not tried them against a standard ste...

Home made VW centre caps for Merc steels

I've been looking for centre caps for my steels and made up these using 321601171A Mk1 Golf centre cap and 2K0601169 2003-onwards Caddy centre cap. All you need is a drill bit for a pilot hole, 76mm hole saw, black silic...

Re: Spare wheel cover
Rob,
When did you buy your wheels cover. I've tried getting a 16" one and was told it was NLA, would really like to get hold of one.

Ian,
I've got a complete loom out of a 10v Audi Ur quattro if you need bits I can send it up to you, also sure I've got an ISV round here somewhere, I'll have a look when I get home.
