Are the hubcaps on the Thing same as another VW model? Thanks John S

Same as bug to 65 and bus to '71.

I've only ever had superbeetles, and I know the hub caps are different John S

If you buy some of the cheaper hubcaps that are available out there, spray paint the inside before installing to stave off rust. The cost is reflected in the quality of the plating.

I am pretty sure that the one I want to replace was a crappy aftermarket

You can put some RejectX on the inside of the hubcaps, helps repel dust and much easier to wipe off.
Used it before I drove above the arctic circle here.

For "new"hubcaps go to this link to buy them.
