Earlier (Bus) versions of this hubcap were just slightly shallower than later Bus/Vanagon ones (which carried a 251 part number). Maybe the one you have is for a Bus and therefore just a hair too shallow. Aftermarket ones can be either way, although most are of the later style that will fit both. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT
