Awesome, I have ordered a pair from that website for delivery next week. Hopefully, getting them on will be effortless!

It's not difficult. A few guides suggest you have to remove the glass but there's no need. Just dip the glass down as low as it goes and using a flat blade screw driver / trim removal tool, just release 2 clips at the top of the cover and it slides off.

Thanks, I watched a couple of the vids on Youtube, but I will definitely try without removing the mirror first...

I'd add to be sure you are in control of the cover as it can come off very suddenly and end up on the floor! :rolleyes:

I love your videos and your car. The wheels are really nice and you obviously take great pride in ownership.
