Installing Saleen center caps

[Seraphitia102]

I know this may be stupid, but honestly, I've heard that Saleen center caps fit replica wheels, and I just got my center caps today, and they don't fit. Do I need to push in hard? I tried a little bit of brute strength and it still doesn't go in. Is there some kind of procedure of me installing Saleen center caps on replica wheels? Or do they really not fit the replicas?

Are your wheels from AFS? I have heard that some center caps don't fit AFS wheels.

this might be a stupid question, but did you take the rims off the car ? The caps click in from the back.......I remember you had no center caps, so this might be the case. The 03 cobra AFS wheels I had fit the ford svt caps and the zr saleen replicas should fit as well, let us know how it goes, I might dfo the same thing !

You gonna have to take each wheel off. Unless you can get something small enough in there to pop it out.

So are you saying that the center caps go in from the back of the wheel and not the front? you are right, i have holes in my wheels right now. I asked the people who installed my wheels to leave out the ZR center caps it came with because I was planning to put Saleen center caps on.

my car looks like this:

looks real nice, yea, if you bring it in and put it on a lift they should be able to put the caps on real quick. You could also put saleen clone, instead of faleen, in your sig, I think you did the right thing not calling it a saleen.......it does look great !!
