Hub caps

Post by foxes_biscuits »

I got a set of second hand hub caps for free for my caddy but the centres are a bit perished and 1 is missing the centre. I can't find anything on the Internet regards replacement centres, any help much appreciated. [5K0071455]ImageImage

On parts diagram there is no mention of individual parts, just the hubcap as a whole piece at about £88 a set or £26 each (which is £104 for 4 :roll: ).

There are lots of VW logo discs of many sizes on AliX
One might work ?

Just buy a set of centres off ebay. Make sure the centres are stuck down securely before driving though, I lost a few that didn't stick too well!

I bought stick on ones from eBay to cover my audi centre caps. Nearly 4 years later, they’re still on. They weren’t very expensive, about £10/15

Thinking Image I may have to go down that route as well Pete
Picked up my Audi wheels yesterday and the centre caps are obviously OEM (8W0 601 170) 60mm. So unless anyone on here has found decent VW ones to replace them ? It’s looking like stickers ? Image OEM Audi ones have the 4rings, and they are removable with 4 little tabs (photos below) Any ideas chaps ?

They look similar to mine. I did the same, just popped out the Audi rings.

Looks like when you remove the Audi rings the VW stickers may not have anything to stick to. The stickers I bought (Skoda) were slightly domed. However you could always epoxy them on - just make sure they are fully dry before you go for a spin.
