Hi,

Has anybody purchased new ones recently? Where would you recommend to go and what price can I expect to pay?

Anyone use these?

If you have locking wheel nuts then the plastic cover may not fit that bolt. It may be worth checking with the supplier first.
 
Having purchased bolts from a well-known supplier who shall remain nameless, but has a regular ad in PP [;)], I would strongly caution against using any bolt other than an official Porsche supplied one.

My after-market ones stretched & looked like bananas after a few '000 miles [:mad:]
 
£150 inc vat for a full set including the 4off knurled ones & a socket adapter (Mk2 variant rather than old MK1 type)
 
I had a set of custom made stainless steel wheel nut caps made for my car and I replaced the locking nut on each wheel with a new standard one from OPC .

The new caps suit the wheels and cover the unsightly rust.
