You cna make the ones in the rear work as well if you use a spacer behind the wheel. You cna also usea center cap for an older VW I don't have the part number handy ut it starts with 311 ------- Maybe that's for a Type 3. Anyway, black center caps which have to be glued on to the center. Then use black plastic lugnut caps from a Cabrio or something similar. Very nice effect. Another solution is to use billet aftermarket Porsche-style alloy caps which have three screws to hold them in place. The ywill require a center cap spacer to work in the rear unless you have a spacer on the wheel already. You can see some of these on my Alternative wheels page. There is a pic of my gold 87 GL. Look at the wheels. http://hometown.aol.com/bentbtstr8/vanagoncafewheelspage1.html You can also see them up close in my "how to" change bolt patterns page or directly tothe photo at: http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/realsf/images/finishedwheel.jpg BenT Vanagon Cafe http://hometown.aol.com/bentbtstr8/myhomepage/index.html
