| Hi
Does anyone know where to get the hard spare wheel covers for air cooled vans I've seen?
I have a vinyl one but the solid ones look a bit smarter.
Cheers

| Hi
Our spare wheel cover doesn’t fit very well, it has foam underneath but nothing at the top.
Thank you |

| Sorry, .. under the tyre is a strip of foam sitting at the bottom in the hard cover that clips on the front. |

| Right so remove that strip of foam, and make sure you rotate the clasp so that it is at the bottom of the wheel. That way any water that enters the cover will drain away rather than sit in the bottom of the cover and keep moisture next to your BraziBays paintwork.
You don't need the foam. Simply adjust the lock nut on the clasp to get the correct tension. ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer and Tango - the Fizzy Kombi
