Hi allRecently lost a wheel trim and finding it very difficult to replace it, Decided to get a full new set of four. Bought a set on Ebay but they came nowhere near fitting, Had my money returned and bought another set, was assured they would fit a Boxer. But no. Had my money back again but reluctant to buy another set without being certain they will fit.
  On a lighter note, last year coming home from France the top of my gearstick came loose in my hand. That was a panicky moment. In the middle of Calais too. Managed ok later though as applying downward pressure on the stick was able to change gears. Back home bought a new knob, only £8 and fitted it easy peasy.

You probably need what are known as 'deep dish' wheel trims/covers - I think Milenco refer to them as 'bulbous'. 

I had similar problems to those you have experienced so eventually visited a local supplier where I was able to try them in the car park to ensure they fitted before purchasing them.
