Akajak Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Is there a best way to remove/replace the wheel centre caps to avoid damage ? I don't know how they are fixed so any help would be welcome before I get the flat head out, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 think they are just a push fit Quote hindsight: the science that is never wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bibs Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Best to push them out from the inside so take the wheels off. They're quite soft and a screwdriver may damage them.

Akajak Posted May 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Thanks guys, I received these ones as spares which seem to be a cheap metal rather than rubber and are 5 pronged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 That's there to stop them popping out as the wheels heat up on Trackdays Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

Kristof Thys Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 The spring on the above ones is a good thing because if you remove the OEM ones several times they don't 'click' in place anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
