Some low life has stolen my dust caps!

[andylwilson]

My dust cap cost me 1.99 from a local shop it the type they sell in halfords for about 18.00 and you have a key to undo them you can't unscrew them by hand because they just spin

I feel for you mate. about 2 years ago with my previous 75 some low life decided that my drivers side windscreen wiper was not positioned correctly,So they helped me by repositioning it upright, then decided that was not correct and proceeded to bend the whole arm back over the wing. Ok they might think it's fun or hard to do it but I had to replace the arm and aero wiper blade that was perfect the night before.

Scum ... that is all they are.

Tried a similar one to those with an allen key but the allen grub screw seized so the tyre company had to cut them all off to replace the valves. The ones I had were more trouble than they were worth.

Kids love to collect these things,, we on the form should have a shop where we could buy replacements like this instead of going to flea bay, it would still not help with the fact that yours were stollen

Eggs thrown.
That can be a scam to get you to wipe/wash the windscreen which then goes white and you are totally blind, It smears so bad you have to stop and then loose your car or get mugged or could just be kids being a pain.

I would warn against the fitting of that type also!

For you may find that when the little angel finds that he can't pinch them, he'll either key the side of the car, or kick your door mirrors off instead!

Much easier to simply replace with a couple of plastic caps instead!

The ones I have just have two small holes in the inner part at the end and the key has two lugs which go into the holes and work spot on
