They are around £5 each at the dealers last time I bought some. Best bet is to phone them and find out.

Hey folks,

Some little runt nicked two of my rear vw centre caps for 18" RS8's, ended up paying £36 for two off fleabay, only place I could get them.  Went to a well known wheel place base and they told me to buy a new set of wheels, how funny is that guy, lol!

Be careful with where you buy them from....

I bought some centre caps from ebay for my Monty II's, advertised as genuine vw centre caps & paid about £15 for a set of 4. They were purchased from someone in Canada, when they eventually arrived they had actually come from Hong Kong... Turned out that they were not genuine (surprise surprise!!!) & they wouldn't even fit! They were too small for the wheel & wouldnt even clip into place.

I eventually got a refund from the seller after posting negative feedback & ended up buying them from the dealer at a cost of over £25 for a set of 4.

Hi Mark can you confirm the ebay ones from HK are ok?  I'm hearing too much about them not being right!  The colour and size matches ok?  Please advise asap, thanks.

Ok so I bought a set of 4 from a seller in Hong Kong in eBayUK for £33.91 (27.13 + 6.78 delivery).  VW UK charge over £16 each (Part 1J0601149A or 1J0 601 149 AGRB).  They're obviously fake but they fit and look absolutely fine.  Thought I'd share this with everyone.
