SGT0225 Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 I recently purchased 4 CS69 20" rims. One hubcap was broke so I removed it. I have a replacement hubcap. How do I install it without breaking it? It is plastic with a spring metal clip on the rear side. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tispco Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 I have the 18" CS69 wheels, but they have the exact same caps. The caps are a bit on the fragile side. First, absolutely do NOT remove the metal spring clip. I installed mine by pushing down very hard and evenly on the cap with my hands and it will snap in. I know some use a rubber mallet, but I was worried I would break the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
