I'm looking for replacement Wheel Trims for my Lunar 400. I cannot seem to find the easier fitting ones in local car accessory shops. Any ideas?

We lost one of ours recently, 14" and bought a couple at Chichester Caravans for £6.50 each.  We didn't realise how tatty the other ones were until we bought the replacements!

Don`t forget to tie them on using cable ties as the easier they are to fit -  the easier they will fall off. Remember also that you will need to cut them off in case of a puncture.

Weerab, how i wish i'd have read your message an hour ago. Lost one of my new wheel trims, didn't notice until i crossed the river Clyde. Luckily it was still on our drive when we got back  think the mechanic didn't put it right on when he changed the wheel earlier.  Cable ties are on.

But they have to come off fairly easily to fit the wheel clamp, don't they??

Try a local car boot. Theres always some-one there with the odd trim or two. You never know one of them might be your missing one.

I think I'll go for the new type with the ring fitting on, harder to fit but harder to remove. I have a wheel clamp that fits over the trim, so I dont have to remove it. Incidentally, mine disappeared after a service too, I suggest a look round the van after servicing to put things right, my van was in a right state after I picked it up from the latest 'Service', I really can do a better job of it than them, just that I haven't got the fancy stickers. I even had to readjust the brakes this time to stop judder, which is really annoying, anyway different thread probably.

What's the analogy, if you want something doing right....

Hi

I have a set of 4 x 13" wheel trims if anyone is interested? Second hand off my old car and in reasonable condition.
