If the ID of your trim rings is larger than the OD of the hubcaps, then you have the wrong kind of trim rings. If your car is a 71 with 4-bolt wheels, I don't know what you might have that wouldn't be right. OTOH, '71s did not come with the trim rings; they came with the outside face painted silver instead. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
