Tricks for removing center caps.
« on: September 26, 2021, 09:04:20 PM »
Hi I have 17” year one snowflakes along with their replacement center caps with the retainer liners.  What’s the best way to remove the caps without damaging the caps and the clips?

Thanks
Darryl

They shouldn't be that hard to remove.  I have the same setup as you.  Each one will have three retainer clips.  Push to one side and maybe a rotational motion and
they will pop off.  A small wooden shim between the clips will help ease the removal.
