I've had a set of alloy valve caps on my car for a full 2 weeks now without some little toe-rag school kid swiping them.

Is this some sort of record?

Is 2 days a record for avein them knicked?

Damm it,

Beat me by one day, last set were half-inched 3 days after purchase although it was in the garage overnight

ZIPPY

3 months mate but i did catch 1 little tw*t trying to have them away,he didnt have the brain cells to understand they are theft proof without the small allen key,lets just say he limped away from my car.

Top Man Zippy,

Where did you get the locking caps from, must get some, mine are bound to be gone by the time I drive home tonight!

ZIPPY

Chris, Scoobyparts.com they are about £11 you get a small allen key to screw into each cap to stop them being nicked,they come in various colours as well.

Cheers

Cheers again,

going to order some up now, like the STI ones, look better than plain old silver.

Dogus

Definately get the locking ones... I didn't and they lasted 10 days. BUT EXPLAIN THIS.... they nicked 3 of the 4 and replaced them with regular black plastic ones !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird or what ????

My record will take some beating, fitted on a Sunday night and gone by lunch time Monday, feckin *******!

chris singleton

Hopefully longer than Andy W's

Dirty Wrong'un

Put some on, nipped them up with a spanner, next time I checked the pressure the bl00dy things had corroded on, only took a couple of weeks. I won't use them again, they do look alright though!!
