  View original topic: Batwing wheel horn button.

can anyone give me a little info as to whether the Horn Bottons on the Batwing wheels particularly the plastic lens in the center is that removable? mine has a crack but the Chrome and the surronding part is good. I would like to replace it. I understand these horn buttons are hard to come buy and fetch about $200 but what about the center pieces with the Wolfsburg castle? someone should repop them.

they do come apart fairly easily but be careful as the tabs that get bent break very easily

Or repop the whole thing. I'm still kicking myself for passing on one awhile back :(

how do they come apart? and you said repop it? do thy make a repop?

flip the horn button over you should see little tabs holding the center piece in place.
gently lift the tabs (they break quit easily) and push the center section out.
careful as it is spring loaded with a little metal plate in there.

Sorry,I meant passing on an original one,not a repop. I have not seen any reproductions.
