BMW centre caps

ugglasdav

Hi all,

Anyone know somewhere online you can pickup genuine BMW centre caps? Want to avoid eBay replicas as much as I can

68mm Afaik for style 403s

The dealer if you want to be sure, they aren't crazy money. But you'll probably get three good sets of replicas on Amazon for the same price.

Try Autohaus aftermarket in Walkinstown, they have a FB page with contact details and are on Adverts also Etc. Got 4 genuine centre caps off them before for an e90 when I was getting AbS sensors and driveshaft ABS rings off them. Don’t remember what they cost but weren’t expensive.

There's usually a metal retaining clip on the back of them - I always remove the wheel to get the cap off, its held on quite tightly normally and you'll damage the wheel. You could try a plastic trim tool if you have one though.

If you are binning the old caps drill a hole in the face, then use a pry tool/small screwdriver in the hole to prise them off.

Take the wheel off. They pop from the back.
