    How about Frank Hogans?

    Yet, nobody likes to buy from Frank Hogan direct because dealerships are expensive BUT motor factors do not sell branded hubcaps. They will only be able to sell you spurious hubcaps which might do you.

    But, If your like me and prefer the correct look for your car then try VW, Ebay or a scrapyard.

    Here is an Ebay result. I have taken the B5 Golf on 15" Rims.

    Anything from the VAG group was never going to be cheap

    I would imagine you could pick up a set of hubcaps in Frank Hogans for no more than €60.

    Thanks Lads,

    Yeah I'm looking for VW branded ones, sorry for asking again but can you tell me where there are any scrapeyards in Limerick I could try. (Not from here, although I should know my way around by now!) I'll check out ebay as well...

    Thanks again for your help...

    Go to Dalys Cross on the Dublin Rd. Maxol Station. Turn left for Castleconnel / O'Briens Bridge.

    Keep going until you pass under a train bridge. Around 300mtrs after this there is a turn to the right onto a local/regional road.

    Follow this to Bob Sweeneys. Acres upon acres of land with a lot of stuff to choose from.

    Also, altough much smaller(and cant think of name). Head out the Kilmallock road and pass the Four Elms pub(around 3-4kms out). Around 2kms after this there is a scrap yard on your right.

    Both should be open on Saturday mornings.
