They do look smart. And were on my 'to do' list as the ones on it look a bit grubby in places. At £25 you can't grumble really

Managed to bag 4 on fleabay at 99p each plus 2.50 postage, gonna see if they'll discount on postage for bulk orders but at £14 for for that's still a decent bargain!

They're ok but why not look at flush valves if you're going to spend money on them?
Ebay 290455946617 is just an example.

Too much happening with the caps all with the V logo. Flush valves would be better

Would I need to get a tyre place to fit flush valves?
