Put some liquid dish soap on the inside tab edges. Set cap into place > center it up > and push one spoke firmly with your fingers, while using the palm of your hand to give the dead center of the cap a firm, hard smack.

I have also used a rubber mallet, but you can't kill it with excessive pressure.

Make sure you have your garage door closed prior to proceeding! Turn the Prowler on it's side.....two wheels on the floor. With the other two wheels & center hup-caps facing upwards, put a can of Tuna (brand doesn't matter)on top of each one of the exposed hub-caps and then lay a Cinder Block on top of each can of Tuna. Within 20 seconds, you'll hear each hub-cap snap into place. Remove Cinder Blocks and cans of Tuna......flip Prowler on it's other side and repeat aforementined process.

PS....hope your enjoying your new Prowler.

I have one "point" on each that does not fit tight so it is quite possible that I broke one tab on each cap. The caps on the rear wheels (which I have never removed) seem to fit tight on all 5 of the "points". Of course it's entirely possible that the rear caps have been siliconed on like one of the old front caps had been.

Thanks,
