Top tip - use blutack so that they don't come off when you're driving and those with itchy fingers are discouraged when they try.

Really?

Thy come off easily?

Does anyone know where these PLASTIC TWEEZERS are?

For removing the dust caps?

[Paul007]

should be in the spare wheel kit if they are like the ones in my Octy.

Here you are mate, it looks like this. part number 8d0 012 244 a

Just seen you photo of your flat- what's caused it mate. good job you've got a spare, if you'd had 1 of the compressor and gunge kits you might mave been really stuck. Hope this is all that goes wrong

Thks Martin!

I thought he SOLD em?

1st link looks tempting with good winter tyres.

2nd link cheap with just alloys...

And hes abt 20miles from me!

...not in a rush at the mo

...got me snow socks ordered...

...let me think...

[littleade]

Glad it was just the 1 tyre, bad enough tho that was. Sounds like some gorrilla might have used a windy gun on your wheel bolts? Might be worth checking they're tightened up to the correct torque when you get the new tyre?

I bought 1 of these for just a few quid- works quite well if you hold the neck in 1 hand and push down on the handle with the other. Being ever so anal I wrapped some insulation tape around the top of the socket where it goes on to the wheel so it won't scratch or chip the laquer
