Interesting, the aftermarket clips appear to be the wrong shape and size all together. I'm going to remove the required clips from the junk spare wheels on the bus. Thanks.

yup, aftermarket hubcap clips for split window buses are notoriously known to be a horrible fit & finish! if anyone has wheels they're scrapping because they're too far gone...salvage and save those og clips!! 

ps...nice to see lanny looking to bus parts...cant wait to see what the finished product looks like! :cool:
