They just pull off and push on. Probably the reason they are often missing.bobbybiscuit wrote:Looking to replace one missing cap and one door lock cap (driver side). see images
I am not sure how to replace them ie how to remove existing one on driver side and how on earth do i fix one on the passenger side front.
Yes, have a look (here) in this ebay link for the lock caps in various colours including black. The push on, with little barbs that spring out to hold them in place.bobbybiscuit wrote:I take it I can buy these on ebay.

You say they push on but on the nearside, what are they pushing on to? Does it snap in to the door? or do you apply adhesive
And thanks for the link - yes thats what i am looking for. Quite surprised how expensive it is for a piece of plastic.

I literally just pushed them into position and they stayed there. No adhesive or anything. They are still there now, years later.bobbybiscuit wrote:You say they push on but on the nearside, what are they pushing on to?
There are some holes in the door behind the cap and the plastic of the cap fits into it.
It really is that simple
